Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Radiographic grids require an increase in mAs as the grid ratio increases to maintain proper image receptor exposure. This is because grids are used to reduce scatter radiation, which can improve image contrast but also absorb more of the primary beam, necessitating an increase in mAs to compensate for the loss of exposure.
