abnormalities.
kilovoltage
The quality of x-ray photons is affected by:
15-20; caudad
For a posteroanterior (PA) axial oblique projection of the C-spine, the central ray is angled
________° in
the _______ direction.
full inspiration
What instructions for respiration are given to a patient during a routine chest lateral projection?
100;100
Selecting exposure factors of ________ milliampere-seconds (mAs) and _______peak
kilovoltage (kVp)

Thermionic emission
The process of electrons boiling off the filament is referred to as:
sitting eye level with the child and walking them through the examination
A 4-year old patient enters the radiology suite for chest radiography and appears anxious. The
child has
never had the examination before. She is not speaking or answering questions. The technologist
could
best attempt to communicate with the child by:
, H2O2
Combining 2 hydroxyl radicals (OH*) will form:
15 inch minimum SSD
Which of the following is a guideline used to reduce personnel and patient dose during fixed
fluoroscopy?
rotor and stators
Which of the following components make up the induction motor in an imaging system?
bregma
The junction between the coronal and sagittal sutures of the skull is called the:
bargaining
A terminally ill patient has asked the doctor about possible volunteer opportunities in the
hospital. She
says that if she can volunteer in the hospital, she might be able to extend her life a bit longer
from doing
good deeds. This represents the ________ stage of grief for the patient.
86
All of the following are within acceptable kVp accuracy variance for an exposure using 80 kVp
EXCEPT
FOR ________ kVp.
-86
-84
-82
-76
visceral
The kVp variance is within + 5%. At 80 kVp, the variance is 4 kVp (80 x .05 = 4). Therefore, 76
kVp - 84
kVp is within acceptable limits.
