3 Questions
What is the difference between a variable kVp chart and a fixed kVp chart?
Variable kVp charts use an optimum kVp value for each projection while fixed kVp charts use a specific mAs value for each projection
What is the advantage of a fixed kVp chart over a variable kVp chart?
More latitude for exposure error
What is a modified fixed kVp chart?
A chart in which mAs is the primary variable but kVp fluctuates within a range of ±4 kVp from the optimum level
"Mastering Variable kVp Technique Charts for Radiography" quiz challenges your knowledge on constructing technique charts based on a specific mAs value for each projection, while varying the kVp by 2 to 3 kVp/cm for changes in patient/part size. Learn about the advantages of variable kVp charts, such as higher image contrast and greater visibility of spatial resolution. Test your expertise on radiography techniques with this quiz!
