RT LESSON 3

QUIZ
Kindly select A for TRUE & B for FALSE 1 to 20
1. Sensitivity in a radiograph is usually considered to be a function of Contrast and
Definition.
2. Inherent unsharpness causes poor definition but can be eliminated by using a longer
source-to-film distance.
3. Scattered radiation and an excessive specimen-to-film distance will both cause a loss of
definition.
4. Geometric unsharpness can be improved by keeping the film as close as possible to the
specimen during an exposure.
5. Rays from the X-ray source should be perpendicular to the film to help prevent
penumbra.
6. Gradual changes in specimen thickness produce radiographs that show excellent definition.
7. Large gain films provide the best definition in a radiograph.
8. Internal scatter is caused by X-ray energy that has taken a new direction within the
specimen being radiographed.
9. Penumbra can be reduced by increasing the source-to-specimen distance.
10. A distortion greatly affects the amount of penumbra on a radiograph.
11. Film graininess greatly affects the amount of penumbra on a radiograph.
12. Back scattered radiation is often caused by low energy X-rays whose electron path was
changed within the film.
13. Almost all scattered radiation can be classified under the general category of Inherent
Unsharpness.
14. Penumbra can be eliminated by using a gamma ray source.
15. Contrast is considered to be the comparison between film densities on adjacent areas of
radiograph.
16. Radiographic sensitivity is considered to be a measure to how accurately a discontinuity
can be imaged.
17. If back scatter is suspected as causing a loss of definition, a lead letter can be placed
between the film and the specimen to indicate possible scattered radiation.
18. The best radiographic sensitivity is obtained when the radiograph has a high contrast.
19. Formula Ug=Fxd/D, d is always considered job thickness.
20. While large grain films are often used to reduce exposure time, the small grain films
provide the best definition.
Kindly select best possible answer for 21 to 23
