Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Kilovoltage peak (kVp) should be chosen based on the type and amount of contrast desired. This will help achieve the best possible image quality with the appropriate balance of penetration and contrast. A higher kVp will provide more penetration, resulting in a lower contrast image, while a lower kVp will provide higher contrast but less penetration. The type of imaging plate phosphor will not affect the selection of kVp.
