Question
Answer
Air gap   show
🗑
Back scatter   show
🗑
Coherent scatter (Thompson scatter)   show
🗑
Compton effect   show
🗑
show a composite of two grid s with the lead strips at right angle to each other  
🗑
show the range of distance with in which the grid will not absorb an undue amount of useful radiation  
🗑
show lead strips are aligned to the direction of the diverging primary x-ray beam, is precisely aligned to the to the x-ray beam at specific SID  
🗑
Grid   show
🗑
show technique chart in which the mAs is constant and kVp changes per patient size  
🗑
Grid cutoff   show
🗑
Grid frequency   show
🗑
show the effectiveness of a grid, the relationship between the height of the lead strip to the width of the inner space material  
🗑
