Who should wear a radiation monitor?
Anyone who may acquire an annual occupational dose of 5 mSv
On a PA chest radiograph, the left proximal clavicle is shown superimposed over
thespinal cord. What positioning changes should be made to increase the diagnostic
value of the image?
, Rotate the patient left side slightly posterior to the IR
The isotropic nature of the x-ray beam means that it?
Travels in all directions
All fluoroscopy machines must have an exposure switch that is of a deadman type. This
type of switch is one that stops:
when the pressure on it is released
Concerning filtration, adding more half value layers (HVL) has what effect on the quality
of the x-ray beam
Increased quality
Coherent interactions typically occur with a beam carrying less than:
