|---|---|
| All of the following are associated with the anode except | D.)thermionic emission (Selman, 9th ed., pp. 138-139) |
| The type of x-ray tube designed to turn on and off rapidly, providing multiple short, precise exposures is | B.)grid-controlled (Shepard, p. 367) |
| The minimum response time of an automatic exposure control (AEC) | B.)is its shortest possible exposure time (Carlton and Adler, 4th ed., pp. 102-103) |
| The electron cloud within the x-ray tube is the product of a process called | B.)thermionic emission (Bushong, 8th ed., p. 118) |
| Which of the following causes pitting, or many small surface melts, of the anode's focal track? | D.)repeated, frequent overloading (Selman, 9th ed., pp. 137-138) |
| A parallel-plate ionization chamber receives a particular charge as x-ray photons travel through it. This is the operating principle of which of the following devices? | A.)AEC (Carlton and Adler, 4th ed., p. 102) |
| Congruence of the x-ray beam with the light field is tested using | C.)radiopaque objects (Carlton and Adler, 4th ed., p. 484) |
| What is the relationship between kV and HVL? | A.)as kV increases, the HVL increases (Selman, 9th ed., pp. 122-123) |
| As window level increases | C.)brightness increases (Fosbinder and Orth, p. 208) |
| Which of the following devices converts electrical energy to mechanical energy? | A.)motor (Selman, 9th ed., p. 78) |
