Questions and Answers

What is the aim of the provided information and procedures?

  • To provide information on how to use an X-ray generator
  • To provide information about the history of X-ray generators
  • To provide general information about medical equipment in hospitals
  • To provide information and procedures for diagnosing or repairing a problem with an X-ray generator (correct)

What does Section 1 of the contents focus on?

  • Preparing for radiographic exposure (correct)
  • Repairing high-tension problems
  • Testing X-ray tubes
  • Diagnosing a problem with the X-ray generator

What does the control system do before permitting preparation to begin?

  • It starts the exposure process immediately
  • It checks the X-ray tube
  • It performs high-tension tests
  • It makes a number of safety tests (correct)

What happens if all tests are satisfied during the preparation mode?
