Question

what combination of exposure factors results in the highest quality x - ray beam?
78 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 13 milliamperage (ma)
85 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 24 milliamperage (ma)
92 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 30 milliamperage (ma)
96 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 3 milliamperage (ma)

Explanation:

In general, higher kilovoltage peak (kVp) and higher milliamperage (mA) contribute to a higher - quality x - ray beam as they increase the energy and quantity of x - rays. Comparing the given options, the combination with the highest kVp and relatively high mA is preferred.

Answer:

96 kilovoltage peak (kVp) and 30 milliamperage (mA)
