Which of the following statements are correct when using film-screen IRs.
1) Increasing the mAs will increase radiographic density.
2) Decreasing kVp will decrease radiographic density.
3) Changing the intensity of exposure has no effect on radiographic density.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

1) Increasing the mAs increases the number of x-ray photons produced, leading to a higher radiographic density. 2) Decreasing kVp reduces the energy of x-ray photons, resulting in more absorption and less penetration through the subject, which can decrease radiographic density.
