show | A coil of tungsten wire that is the source of electrons for x-ray production.
🗑

||||
Space charge | show 🗑
|
||||
Target | show 🗑
|
||||
show | An electron cloud formed when electrons in the outermost shells get so far from the nucleus that they are no longer held in orbit.
🗑
|
||||
show | Fast moving electrons from the cathode to the anode.
🗑
|
||||
Bremsstrahlung | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Made up of many different wavelengths
🗑
|
||||
show | An x-ray photon formed by the collision of an incoming electron with an inner shell electron.
🗑

||||
Dual-focus | show 🗑
|
||||
Focal spot | show 🗑

||||
show | The slant of the anode surface.
🗑
|
||||
show | The tungsten focal area all around the beveled edge of the rotating anode.
🗑
|
||||
show | The vertical projection of the electron stream. Influences image sharpness.
🗑

||||
Filtration | show 🗑
|
||||
show | The unit used to measure voltage across the x-ray tube.
🗑

||||
Tungsten (W) | show 🗑
|
||||
Millisecond (msec) | show 🗑
|
