DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING FINAL EXAM
Q&A
Film is constructed of: - ANSWER-A base with a tint, and single or double emulsion
If the thickness of the filtration is increased, there will be a corresponding: -
ANSWER-Decrease in photons reaching the patient
Many grids installed in veterinary clinics are: - ANSWER-In the midrange of the grid
ratio
The ideal storage conditions for unopened, unexposed boxes of x-ray film are: -
ANSWER-At room temperature
Contrast on a radiographic image is mostly dependent upon: - ANSWER-The
differences in tissue density
kVp determines: - ANSWER-Penetration
Regarding fluorescence - ANSWER-Light is emitted only when the phosphor is
stimulated.
According to the inverse square law - ANSWER-The intensity decreases rapidly as
the distance from the source increases.
Kilovoltage concerns: - ANSWER-The penetrating power of the photons
Grids: - ANSWER-Should be used to absorb scattered radiation
Green film screen characteristics include - ANSWER-Are recommended for use
today
The strength of an x-ray beam is: - ANSWER-Dependent on the penetrating power
of the beam
In the final image, intensifying screens are responsible for: - ANSWER-Resolution
Time determines - ANSWER-Density
Grid ratio is described as: - ANSWER-The height of the lead strips compared with
the distance between them
The efficiency of x-ray penetration is dependent upon: - ANSWER-An increase in kV
Intensifying screens: - ANSWER-Provide a faster method of imaging
Radiation primarily affects: - ANSWER-The water surrounding the cell.
