Question
Answer
What technical factor does the technologist set manually when using AEC?   show
🗑
show positioning

show greatest, greatest  
🗑
If 3 cells are sctivated during a BE so that the barium was over 1 cell and normal tissue was over the other 2 cells, the resultant image would be?   show
🗑
If all 1 cell is activated during a BE so that the barium is over the cell, what would be the result?   show

🗑
___________ _________ collimation skills result is an increase repeat rate when using AEC?   show
🗑
show Detector selections  
🗑
When using AEC, the technologist should do what when it comes to collimation?   show
🗑
show TOo dark  
🗑
show 150 or 2-3 times  
🗑
Will AEC always provide for a precisely repeatable exposure?   show
🗑

🗑
The cathode is on the _____ side?   show
🗑
The filament and focusing cup are on the ________?   show
🗑
What material is the filament made out of?   show
🗑
By increasing what factor will increase the number of electrons boiled off by the filament?   show
🗑
What size are the small focal spots?   show
🗑
show Better detail  
🗑
show Have to use lower mA, limit size of primary beam field at a short SID  
🗑
What is the function of the filament?   show

🗑
show Narrow the thermionic cloud, repels staying electrons. As the electrons build up in the filament, the neg charges begin to oppose additional electrons  
🗑
show Primary thermal conductor, serves as a target for high voltage electrons, conduct high voltage from cathode back to x-ray generator  
🗑
What is the purpose of the rotating anode?   show
🗑
What material is the anode made out of?   show
🗑
show high melting point, high atomic #, heat conducting ability  
🗑
What problems are associated with the anode?   show
🗑
Small target angle limits the size of the primary beam when used with?   show
🗑
Describe the target area?   show
🗑
show Starts form target to measure  
🗑
show kinetic energy  
🗑
show 12 degrees  
🗑
Diagnostic tube gave focal spots of ____mm to ___mm?   show
🗑
Due to the anode heel effect, how much total variance in the number of photons can occur?   show
🗑
Describe why the anode heel effect is a problem?   show
🗑
show Thicker part on cathode end  
🗑
What is the stator function?   show
🗑
Where is the stator located?   show
🗑
show hollow copper cylinder is attached to the anode disk by a molybdenum shaft. Silver plated ball barings around the shaft that attach to the glass envelope.  
🗑
show bad ball bearings  
🗑
show houses entire cathode and anode assembly. Keeps the vacuum  
🗑
What is the window?   show
🗑
What is the protective housing's function?   show
🗑
Leakage radioation must not exceed ____ mR/hour at _____ meter?   show
🗑
show limits the electrons from the filament  
🗑
show composed of photons that were not produced at the focal spot  
🗑
Off-focus radiation can contribute to as much as _____% of the primary beam?   show
🗑
How are tube rating charts used?   show
🗑
What is heat unit?   show
🗑
show kVp x mA X time X recitification constant. Single 1.00, 3 1.35, high 1.40  
🗑
Know how to use cooling charts   show
🗑
show braking or slowing  
🗑
show Interacts w/ the force field of the nucleus  
🗑
In Characteristic radiation, the incident electron is?   show
🗑
show k shell  
🗑
show 80-100 Kvp  
🗑
show Brems  
🗑
show keV energy of only 30-40% of kVp  
🗑
What are the factors that affect both amplitude and position of the em\mision spectrum?   show
🗑
show mA, time or mAs  
🗑
show 60

🗑
3 phase, 12 pulse?   show
🗑
show P=v x amp  
🗑
What are hight frequency generators?   show
🗑
