Using excessive kVp with a digital IR results in
1) increased IR exposure
2) increased scatter reaching the IR
3) decreased contrast

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using excessive kVp with a digital imaging receptor (IR) results in increased IR exposure due to more photons passing through the patient, increased scatter reaching the IR because higher energy levels are more likely to undergo Compton scatter, and decreased contrast as a result of the increased scatter and the broader range of photon energies reaching the IR.
