Question

what combination of exposure factors results in the highest quantity x - ray beam? 82 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 3.5 mm aluminum (al) filtration 82 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 2.5 mm aluminum (al) filtration 96 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 2.5 mm aluminum (al) filtration 96 kilovoltage peak (kvp) and 3.5 mm aluminum (al) filtration

Explanation:

Higher kilovoltage peak (kVp) increases the quantity of the x - ray beam. Also, less aluminum filtration allows more x - rays to pass through. So, a higher kVp and lower mm of aluminum filtration will result in a higher quantity x - ray beam. Among the options, 96 kVp and 2.5 mm aluminum filtration meets these criteria.

Answer:

C. 96 kilovoltage peak (kVp) and 2.5 mm aluminum (Al) filtration
