Across
  1. 3. patient positioning where patient is lying down
  2. 6. controls size of x-ray beam to minimize scatter radiation
  3. 7. device used to measure x-ray exposure
  4. 9. tangential radiographic view of any structure
  5. 11. negatively charged electrode within x-ray tube
  6. 13. expose thoracic radiographs at maximum ______
  7. 14. speed with which electrons transfer energy
  8. 15. stack on top of each other
  9. 18. accidental or unintentional image on radiographic image
  10. 20. outside edge or shadow where film has been imperfectly collimated
Down
  1. 1. proportions of radiographed object are altered unevenly
  2. 2. built into collimator to remove low-energy x-rays from beam
  3. 4. improve image quality by reducing scatter radiation
  4. 5. radiation intensity is greater on the cathode side
  5. 8. Positioning in which the primary beam enters the body at an angle
  6. 10. transforms remnant radiation from patient to a visible image
  7. 12. square law exposure reduced by square of distance from patient
  8. 16. portion of x-ray image that is sharp & clearly collimated
  9. 17. energy produced within cathode to create potential x-ray beam
  10. 19. positively charged electrode within x-ray tube
