Question

question 3 / 40
what property of the x - ray beam is influenced by changes to the milliampere - seconds (mas)?
energy
divergence
field size
intensity

Explanation:

The milliampere - seconds (mAs) in an X - ray machine controls the number of electrons that strike the target. More mAs means more electrons, resulting in more X - rays being produced, which increases the intensity of the X - ray beam. Energy is related to kVp (kilovoltage peak), divergence is related to the source characteristics, and field size is related to collimation.

Answer:

D. Intensity
