Question

question 4 / 10
when using automatic exposure control (aec), the technologist can directly assign which three of the following parameters? (select three)
kilovoltage peak (kvp)
milliampere - seconds (mas)
source - to - image distance (sid)
object - to - image distance (oid)

Explanation:

In automatic exposure control (AEC), the technologist can directly assign kilovoltage peak (kVp) which affects the penetration of X - rays, source - to - image distance (SID) which influences the intensity of the X - ray beam reaching the image receptor, and object - to - image distance (OID) which impacts image magnification and sharpness. Milliampere - seconds (mAs) is automatically adjusted by the AEC system to achieve the desired exposure.

Answer:

A. Kilovoltage peak (kVp)
C. Source - to - image distance (SID)
D. Object - to - image distance (OID)
