🗑
show Strength, Penetrating Power, and Hardness  
🗑
show mAs, kVp, SID/FFD, OID/OFD  
🗑
1000 mAs=   show
🗑
show 1 kVp  
🗑
What does SID and FFD mean?   show
🗑
What does OID/OFD mean?   show
🗑
mAs is ______ ______ to density   show
🗑
The amount of blackness on the film   show
🗑
What ever you do to mAs you should you do to density?   show
🗑
show Reciprocity law  
🗑
When you increase mAs what does that do to the electrons?   show
🗑
What happens to the photons during thermionic emission?   show
🗑
A minimum change of at least___ in mAs is required to produce a significant increase or decrease in density   show
🗑
If you were using 10 mAs and the film came out too light what would you do and what is your new mAs?   show
🗑
show you would decrease 20mAs by 30% which would give you 14  
🗑
mAs =   show
🗑
show .10 and 100 1 divide by 10 is .10 then .10 multiplied by 1000 is 100  
🗑
show kilovoltage Peaks  
🗑
show bothe the wavelength and the frequency of the x-ray photon

If you increase kVp what do you do to contrast   show
🗑
show increase it  
🗑
when you increase kVp what do you do to density   show
🗑
show 15% rule if you increase by 15% you double density but if you subtract 15% you cut density in half  
🗑
show 8%
