Across
- 3. all forms of computerized and direct radiography make use of this
- 5. the radiographic portion that is sharp and cleanly collimated
- 6. part of x-ray tube that is boiling off electrons
- 8. most vulnerable area in the cell struck by radiation
- 10. builds up contrast slowly
- 12. denotes the pictoral element of the image
- 14. added to the names of those projections in which the central ray passes not parallel to one of the three major directional axes through the body part
- 15. 2x[thickness in cm] + 40 + grid factor = kVp
- 17. this results from fixer leaking into the developer
- 18. setting responsible for affecting the overall blackness on a radiograph
- 20. measurement from the tube to the image receptor
Down
- 1. the height of the lead strips compared with the distance between them
- 2. setting responsible for affecting the contrast on a radiograph
- 4. the outside edge that is imperfectly collimated
- 7. used to remove low energy radiation
- 9. can be used as an advantage when radiographing the thorax or abdomen
- 11. this type of imaging eliminates all processing steps and is recorded directly to the output phosphor
- 13. scientist that discovered x-rays
- 16. packages of energy
- 19. not standard imaging views but helpful
