RADS 3033 - PRINCIPLES OF RADIOGRAPHIC
IMAGING CH 11 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH
SOLUTIONS 2024
For radiographic procedures, scatter radiation is primarily the result of - ANSWER Compton scatter



The probability of a Compton interaction occurring is related to - ANSWER the energy of the x-ray photon



The two major factors that affect the amount of scatter radiation produces and exiting the patient are -
ANSWER volume of tissue irradiated and kVp



The volume of tissue irradiated is determined by

-the area of collimation

-patient size

-field size - ANSWER all of the above



Which of the following produces the greatest amount of scatter radiation exiting the patient

-low kVp and small field size

-low kVp and large field size

-high kVp and small field size

-high kVp and large field size - ANSWER high kVp and large field size



Restriction of the primary beam to the anatomy of interest

-reduces patient exposure

-is a major cause of repeated images

-reduces the amount of scatter produced - ANSWER reduced patient exposure; reduces the amount of
scatter produced



A linear grid

-has lead strips that cross each other

, -has lead strips that travel in one direction

-is the most common type of radiographic grid - ANSWER has lead strips that travel in one direction; is
the most common type of radiographic grid



Linear grids are the most commonly used because - ANSWER the tube can be angles in the direction of
the lead lines



a grid with lead strips that run parallel to each other is a

-parallel grid

-focused grid

-nonfocused grid - ANSWER parallel grid; nonfocused grid



A focused grid's lead strips are angled to match - ANSWER the angle of the x-rays in the primary beam



The distance between the grid and the convergent line is the - ANSWER focal distance



The recommended SIDs that can be used with a focused grid is the - ANSWER focal range



The location in space where all the lines extended from the lead strips meet is the - ANSWER convergent
point



If all the convergent points were connected along the length of the grid they would form the - ANSWER
convergent line



An IR that has a grid permanently attached to its front surface is a - ANSWER grid cassette



The type of grid that is usually to the front of an IR is the - ANSWER wafer grid



The type of grid that includes a channel for the IR to slide into is the - ANSWER grid cap
