The penetration of the x-ray beam is increased under which condition?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The penetration of x-ray beam depends on the energy of the photons, which is directly proportional to the kVp. As the kVp is increased, the energy of the photons increases, resulting in increased penetration of the x-ray beam. Therefore, option B is correct. Option A is incorrect because decreasing the kVp results in decreased penetration. Options C and D are incorrect because the mA affects the quantity, not the quality of the x-ray beam. Option E is incorrect because increasing the time only affects the quantity of the x-ray beam, not the quality.
