Match the terms related to a typical x-ray circuit with the correct statement or definition.
-low-voltage circuit that supplies 3 to 5 amperes

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Filament current supplies low voltage power to the x-ray tube, typically between 3 to 5 amperes.

Answer: A
 Autotransformer is a type of transformer used in the x-ray circuit that allows adjustment of the voltage going to the high-voltage transformer.

Answer: H
 Rectification circuit converts alternating current to direct current, which is used to power the x-ray tube.

Answer: E or D
 X-ray machines can be powered by either single-phase power or three-phase power, depending on the design of the circuit.

Answer: G
 Exposure switch is a device that is used to initiate an x-ray exposure, typically by pressing a button or foot pedal.

Answer: F
 AEC (Automatic Exposure Control) is a feature included in some x-ray circuits that automatically adjusts exposure factors based on the size and density of the patient's body part being imaged.

Answer: B
 Rotor stator is a component of the high-voltage transformer that converts the voltage from the autotransformer to the required kilovoltage needed by the x-ray machine.
