Match the following selections with the correct question as they relate to radiographic film.
-invisible, undeveloped image

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term "latent image" refers to the invisible, undeveloped image that is created when radiation interacts with the film's emulsion.

Answer: C
 Film base refers to the clear, flexible material that supports the emulsion layer.

Answer: D
 Supercoat refers to the protective layer on top of the emulsion that helps prevent scratches and abrasions.

Answer: F
 Panchromatic film is sensitive to all colors of light, allowing for greater detail and contrast in the resulting image.

Answer: H
 Orthochromatic film is only sensitive to certain colors of light, typically blue and green, which can result in a less detailed and less contrasted image.

Answer: I
 Manifest image refers to the final image after the film has been processed and the latent image has been made visible.

Answer: K
 Halation theory refers to the phenomenon of light scattering within the film emulsion, which can cause a halo effect around bright objects in the resulting image.

Answer: B
 Sensitivity speck refers to a small area on the film that is more sensitive to radiation, which can result in a denser spot on the image.

Answer: G
 Duplicating film is designed for making copies of existing radiographs.

Answer: J
 30-60% refers to the typical range of radiation exposure needed to produce a diagnostic quality image on radiographic film.

Answer: A
 Gurney-Mott theory refers to the idea that radiation interacts with the atoms within the film emulsion, creating free electrons that form the latent image.

Answer: L
 68-95% refers to the range of radiation exposure that falls within the "useful range" for radiographic film, meaning that exposure levels outside of this range are either too low to produce a diagnostic image or too high and result in overexposure.
