Principles of Radiographic Imaging
Chapter 17: The Pathology Problem

What is pathology? correct answers The medical science and specialty practice that
deals with ALL aspects of disease, including the structural and functional changes
caused by a disease process.

Pathology and Radiation Absorption correct answers Pathology can alter thickness and
composition of patients tissue density

Does small, localized pathology require a change in technical factors? correct answers
No, it doesn't for things like kidney stones, renal calculi, and small tumors

What are Additive Conditions? correct answers Increase tissue thickness, effective
atomic number (Z#), and/or tissue density
-increase attenuation
-inversely related to image receptor exposure

Additive Conditions require? correct answers -increase in technical factors to properly
expose IR
-Thicker denser parts require more penetration (kVp)

What are destructive conditions? correct answers Decrease in tissue thickness,
effective atomic number, and/or tissue density
-decrease attenuation
-directly related to IR exposure

destructive conditions require? correct answers a decrease in technical factors to
properly expose image receptor
-decrease in mAs

To produce a visible difference requires a minimal change of ___________ % in the
overall exposure to the IR? correct answers 25-50%

An increase of ____ % in kVp will _________ the exposure to the IR correct answers
15% , double

An increase of _______% in ________ will compensate for most _____________
pathology conditions correct answers 5-15%, kVp, additive

AEC systems, will or will not, compensate for, most or all, pathological changes by
