As you are performing a KUB radiograph on a patient using AEC, you notice that your post-exposure readout is unusually high. A possible explanation for this high reading could be
the force field around the nucleus
a detector was collimated out of the field of exposure
150%
time
excellent k-edge value for x-ray production
70 kVp
80.5
kVp
Tungsten is the anode material of choice for x-ray production because of its
