Across
- 5. outside edge or shadow where the film has been imperfectly collimated
- 8. a special heat resistant glass enclosure that houses a cathode and an anode
- 9. filtration to eliminate scattered radiation on the image
- 10. two types of radiation effects
- 13. much lower energy than the usable x-ray beam
- 16. radiation that reaches the film or detector
- 18. the ability to differentiate fine details within the x-ray image
- 20. the tracing of the crests and troughs of a wave
Down
- 1. the amount of energy imparted to the target
- 2. unit immediately beneath the x-ray tube
- 3. process by which intensifying screens react to the incoming radiation
- 4. the number of waves passing a given point per given unit of time
- 6. the result of light traveling through the atmosphere
- 7. the way radiation is measured
- 11. greater number of shades of gray in the image
- 12. portion of the x-ray image that is sharp and clearly collimated
- 14. structure/appearance that isn't normally present on the radiograph and produced by artifact means
- 15. the smallest quantity of any type of electromagnetic radiation
- 17. partner to the cathode in the x-ray tube
- 19. alternative method of developing a variable kv technique chart
