Question
Answer
What are the radiographic geometric factors?   show
🗑
show Density and contrast. Pg. 316.  
🗑
Spatial resolution is measured in what?   show
🗑
show Unsharpness increases as focal spot size increases. Pg. 303.  
🗑
Is there more unsharpness at the cathode or anode end of the tube?   show
🗑
show The effective focal spot will always be smaller than the actual focal spot per the line focus principle. Pg. 307.  
🗑
What is the best method of minimizing voluntary motion?   show
🗑
show Thomas Edison in 1896. Pg. 308.  
🗑
Do phosphors with a high atomic number have a slower or greater speed?   show
🗑
If phosphor size increases, does screen speed increase?   show
🗑
Is there better recorded detail with a faster or slower screen speed?   show
🗑
If the mAs is doubled, what happens to the density?   show
🗑
show The mAs would have to change at least 30%. Pg. 319.  
🗑
Is mAs directly/indirectly proportional to the distance squared?   show
🗑
If twice the original density is needed, what percentage should kV be increased?   show
🗑
What is the single most important way to reduce scatter radiation?   show
🗑
show For body parts measuring 10 cm or greater. Pg. 325.  
🗑
If no grid is used on a large body part, what percentage of scatter radiation contributes to the total IR exposure?   show
🗑
show Grid ratio is the height of the lead strips compared with the distance between them. Pg. 328.  
🗑
show Grid frequency is the number of lead strips per inch. Pg. 329.  
🗑
show 8:1 Grid. Pg. 330.  
🗑
show A 16:1 grid. Pg. 331.  
🗑
The glass tubes accounts for how much filtration of the primary beam?   show
🗑
show 1.0 mm Al equivalent. Pg. 332.  
🗑
show Emphysema, degenerative arthritis, and osteoporosis. Pg. 335.  
🗑
show Ascites, pneumonia, and atelectasis. Pg. 335.  
🗑
show Cut the mAs in half. Pg. 338.  
🗑

🗑
What is the function of contrast scale?   show
🗑
Is there a larger or smaller margin of error when selecting higher kV?   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
