Questions and Answers

Which material can improve the strength of the anode?

  • Aluminum
  • Tungsten
  • Copper
  • Rhenium (correct)
  • What is the bevel angle (θ) for the line focus of the anode?

  • 12° (correct)
  • 15°
  • 45°
  • 30°
  • What is the formula to calculate the coverage (x) of the X-rays in terms of source-patient distance (d) and bevel angle (θ)?

  • x = d * cos(θ)
  • x = d * sin(θ)
  • x = d / tan(θ)
  • x = d * tan(θ) (correct)
