Question

question 25 / 50
an increase in kilovoltage peak (kvp) results in which of the following?
increased x - ray beam quantity
decreased x - ray beam quantity
no change in x - ray beam quantity

Explanation:

An increase in kilovoltage peak (kVp) leads to more energetic electrons striking the target in an x - ray tube, which in turn results in the production of more x - ray photons, thus increasing the x - ray beam quantity.

Answer:

Increased x - ray beam quantity
