Question
Answer
ma determines   show
🗑
current in units   show
🗑
show mas is directly proportional to density  
🗑
time in seconds   show
🗑
show penetrating power, force applied to push the e from cathode to anode;controls QUALITY  
🗑
show 30%  
🗑
law of reciprocity   show
🗑
show directly proportional  
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
show inversely related; high s# underexposed, vica versa  
🗑
inverse square law   show
🗑
maintaining density using kvp and mas   show
🗑
show densitometer  
🗑
show penitrometer, shows gray scale on film  
🗑
step wedge, more steps   show
🗑
4 radiographic properties   show
🗑
show ma time kv and distance  
🗑
show sharpness -> (radiographic)detail and distortion  
🗑
show visibility (of detail) -> density and contrast  
🗑
show overall darkness of film, dependant on amount of exposure, must have adequate density to evaluate other qualities  
🗑
contrast   show
🗑
show black areas, opaque  
🗑
show white areas, translucent  
🗑
film translucence   show
🗑
show is dependant on the # of exposed silver halide crystals  
🗑
show turn into black metallic silver upon development; more crystals faster film  
🗑
latent image   show
🗑
show after processing  
🗑
show .25-2.0  
🗑
show ma, # of photons produced, aka output, intensity, exposure  
🗑
show kvp, penetrating ability of beam  
🗑
show # of electrons crossing the tube from cathode to anode per second  
🗑
relationship between ma and density/tube current   show
🗑
show kvp has the greatest effect on density, but is not used to control density  
🗑
show increase kvp by 15% doubles density and vica versa  
🗑
kvp and contrast   show
🗑
show increase kvp by 15% and halve mas  
🗑
show aka FFD, focal spot to film distance  
🗑
inverse square law   show
🗑
show to compensate for density changes with changes in sid  
🗑
rule of thumb for sid and intensity   show
🗑
double kvp   show
🗑
changes in kvp; 30-50 kvp   show
🗑
show 8% change in kvp  
🗑
changes in kvp; 90-130 kvp   show
🗑
show 1942, determines exposure time and therefore the total mas; must still set kvp, chambers and density selection  
🗑
density selections   show
🗑
show didn't have ionizing chambers, only IR, flourescent screen, and photoiodide  
🗑
fog and density   show
🗑
grids and density   show
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
filtration and density   show
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
power supply(phase) and density   show
🗑
patient size and density   show
🗑
factors that do not effect density   show
🗑
show variation in intensity of photons across longitudinal axis of beam; need more photons for thicker body part, put cathode over that part  
🗑
show with large film size and shorter sid  
🗑
show aka air gap  
🗑
show inverse relationship b/c scatter photons diverge and miss film  
🗑
scatter and density   show
🗑
density and over/under development(film)   show
🗑
show aerated, fatty, water (muscle, glands), bone, teeth; from least to most dense  
🗑
destructive pathologies and density   show
🗑
additive pathologies   show
🗑
mAs def.   show
🗑
kvp doubled   show
🗑
kvp and quality   show
🗑
kvp and quantity   show
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
show increases density  
🗑
radiopaquse constrast media   show
🗑
attenuation   show
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
show 30%  
🗑
