Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Filters are used to remove low energy x-ray photons from the beam which reduces patient radiation dose and improves image quality. Collimators are used to shape and restrict the beam, insulating oil is used for electrical insulation in high voltage generators, and open-ended cones are used to reduce scatter radiation.
