Questions and Answers

What is the difference between a variable kVp chart and a fixed kVp chart?

  • Variable kVp charts use an optimum mAs value for each projection while fixed kVp charts use a specific kVp value for each projection
  • Variable kVp charts use an optimum kVp value for each projection while fixed kVp charts use a specific mAs value for each projection (correct)
  • Variable kVp charts use a specific kVp value for each projection while fixed kVp charts use an optimum mAs value for each projection
  • Variable kVp charts use a specific mAs value for each projection while fixed kVp charts use an optimum kVp value for each projection
  • What is the advantage of a fixed kVp chart over a variable kVp chart?

  • More latitude for exposure error (correct)
  • Greater visibility of the spatial resolution
  • Higher overall image contrast
  • Small incremental changes in exposure techniques
  • What is a modified fixed kVp chart?

  • A chart that uses a specific kVp value for each projection and varies the mAs according to the patient/part thickness
  • A chart in which mAs is the primary variable but kVp fluctuates within a range of ±4 kVp from the optimum level (correct)
  • A chart that uses a specific mAs value for each projection and varies the kVp by 2 to 3 kVp/cm for changes in patient/part size
  • A chart in which kVp is the primary variable but mAs fluctuates within a range of ±4 mAs from the optimum level
