Question

question 3 / 10 what is the unit of measure for tube current?
○ seconds (s)
○ milliamperage (ma)
○ kilovoltage peak (kvp)
○ milligray per second (mgy/s)
report this question

Explanation:

• Seconds (s) measure time, not current.
• Milliamperage (mA) is the unit for electric current, so tube current (a type of electric current) uses mA.
• Kilovoltage peak (kVp) measures voltage.
• Milligray Per second (mGy/s) measures radiation dose rate.

Answer:

B. Milliamperage (mA)
