Radiography: Density, Contrast, Image Acquisition

With an exposure setting of .025 and an mA setting of 400, what is the resulting mAs?
10
 
If patient factors increase (such as a bigger size or an additive pathology), the density/IR exposure will ________ unless compensation in exposure settings is made.
Double the mA
139 mAs
Decrease
The image will be under-exposed
Increase
If the kVp is increased and no other changes are made, the density/IR exposure will ________.
Double the mA
139 mAs
Decrease
The image will be under-exposed
Increase
Assume you have taken an x-ray that produced an image wit acceptable density/IR exposure. Now assume that you are going to take the same x-ray again, but this time with the addition of a grid. If you do not adjust any of your technique settings after adding the grid, what will the result be?
Double the mA
139 mAs
Decrease
The image will be under-exposed
Increase
Assume you are using 200 mA, with .5 seconds (which equals 100 mAs). If you cut your exposure time in half, by how much would you change your mA to ensure you still produced 100 mAs?
Double the mA
139 mAs
Decrease
The image will be under-exposed
Increase
An exposure requires 200 mAs at a 48 inch SID. To maintain the same density/IR exposure, what mAs would be required at a 40 inch SID?
Double the mA
139 mAs
Decrease
The image will be under-exposed
Increase
With no compensating changes made, which of the following is likely to occur if kilovoltage is increased for a radiographic exposure?
An increase in scatter, resulting in low contrast, long scale, and an increase in density/IR exposure
 
A radiographic image is said to have excessive radiographic density/IR exposure. This would be apparent to the radiographer through:
Either seeing a darker than normal film, or in the case of a digital system, an exposure index number indicating excessive exposure to the IR
 
As distance increases, radiation intensity:
Decreases
 
Which of the following techniques will have the greatest density/IR exposure?
800 mA .2 sec 80 kV
200 mA .1 sec 80 kV
400 mA .05 sec 80 kV
800 mA .03 sec 80 kV
A radiograph of the abdomen was made at 40 SID using 300 mA, and .1 second, what would the mAs be?
