Question

question 8/50
increasing milliamperage (ma) influences x - ray beam quantity as it causes it to:
increase
decrease
beam quantity is unaffected when ma is increased

Explanation:

The milliamperage (mA) in an x - ray machine is directly related to the number of electrons available to produce x - rays. More mA means more electrons are accelerated towards the target, resulting in more x - rays being produced. So, increasing mA increases the x - ray beam quantity.

Answer:

A. Increase
