Across
- 5. The radiation that reaches the or detector is called?
- 7. Transmit light evenly through a specially produced glass in order to visualize and interpret radiographic images
- 8. the outside edge or shadow where the film has been imperfectly collimated
- 9. may also be used to reduce or eliminate the effect of scattered and secondary radiation
- 11. the portion of the x-ray image that is sharp and clearly collimated
- 12. developed to absorb scattered and secondary radiation
- 14. an alternative method of developing a variable kVtechnique chart.
- 15. distance from x-ray tube’s focal spot to image receptor
- 16. Structure or appearance that is not normally present on the radiograph and is produced by artificial means
- 19. What is the mAs for the Thorax?
- 20. Radiation that is created by the photon stream outside the actual focal spot
Down
- 1. Can see the outline of one film on the other
- 2. The unit immediately beneath the x-ray tube
- 3. can be dramatic with the structures completely obscured.
- 4. What is the mAs for the Abdomen?
- 6. contributes to either the radiation dose to the patient or technician or appears as film fog
- 10. What type of glass is the illuminator made of?
- 13. If the contrast is compromised as well as the image being too dark,
- 17. What is the mAs for the spine/pelvis?
- 18. the ability to differentiate fine details within the x-ray image
