Q

As collimation increases, the radiographic density will

a. Increases
b. Decreases
c. Remains the same
d. No effect

A

b. Decreases

Rationale: Increasing collimation (smaller field size) decreases radiographic density; density collimation (wider) increases radiographic density

Q

What happen to radiographic contrast if the kVp is increase?

a. Increases
b. Decreases
c. Remains the same
d. No effect

A

B. Decrease

More scatter radiation will be produced if the kvp is increased, therefore, the rad contrast will decrease.

Remember that high contrast is achieved if the kVp is low. But compensation is a must. Lower kVp increases dose of the px
