The photon tissue interaction in diagnostic radiography that results in the total absorption of an x-ray photon and the production of contrast in the radiographic image is:

A large difference in tissue density of adjacent tissues would show:

Increasing beam restriction would:

Secondary radiation:

An image is produced using an 11 x 14 inch field of view. If all other factors remain the same, what would be the affect on a subsequent image if the field of view was reduced to 8 x 10 inches?

Starting with 60 kVp, what new kVp would result in reducing image receptor exposure to one half of the original and what affect would it have on contrast?

Which of the following is used to reduce the effects of scatter radiation on the image receptor?

Ohm’s Law can be written as:

Median Palatine Suture

A decrease from 90 to 77 kVp will result in a decrease in which of the following?1. photoelectric absorption2. shades of gray3. image receptor exposure
