Question

adjustments in mas should be used to control ir resolution. contrast. exposure. window level. 22 multiple choice 1 point x - ray beam penetrability is primarily controlled by mas. focal spot size and dimension. kvp. filtration

Explanation:

mAs (milli - ampere seconds) is related to the quantity of electrons flowing through the X - ray tube filament per second and is used to control the exposure of the image receptor (IR). Higher mAs values result in more X - rays being produced and thus increased exposure. For X - ray beam penetrability, kilovoltage peak (kVp) is the main controlling factor. Higher kVp values increase the energy of the X - ray photons, enhancing their penetrability.

Answer:

1. C. exposure
2. C. kVp
