What is it?
How does it affect the “image”

• The amount of overall blackening on a radiograph, or of a certain part of the image, is referred to as density.
• Density results from two things: • the amount of radiation that reaches a
particular area of the film, • and the amount of black metallic
silver deposited when the film is developed.

Creating the IMAGE
• When x-rays pass through a patient's body, three things can happen:
• (1) the x-ray photon is transmitted, passing through the body, interacting with the film, and producing a dark area on the film;
• (2) the x-ray photon is absorbed in an area of greater tissue density, producing lighter areas on the film; and
• (3) the x-ray photon is scattered and reaches the film causing an overall gray fog.

Introduction to
Technical Factors to
Create an image
![Page 25: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
X-ray quantity (mAs)
• is a measure of the number of x-ray photons in the beam.
• Also called x-ray output, intensity or exposure.
X-ray quality (kVp)
• is a measure of the penetrating ability of the x-ray beam
![Page 26: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• The quantity of electron flow, or current, in the X-ray tube is described in units of milliamperes (mA).
• The maximum kinetic energy of the accelerated electrons is defined in terms of kilovolts peak potential (kVp).
![Page 27: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
IMAGES
• DENSITY = THE AMOUNT OF BLACKENING “DARKNESS” ON THE RADIOGRAPH
• CONTRAST – THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE BLACKS TO THE WHITES
![Page 28: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Film Screen• Overexposed
• Referring to a radiograph that is too dark because too much x-radiation reached the image receptor
• Underexposed
• Referring to a radiograph that is too light because too little x-radiation reached the image receptor
![Page 29: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Density on Image• When a radiologist looks at a radiograph, they looks for any anatomic or pathologic
change that causes a change from the normal density.
• That could be, a solid mass in the lung that stops x-rays from reaching the film and decreases the amount of film darkening in that area (appears “light or white on image”
• Or excessive “AIR” – looks BLACK
![Page 33: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

x-ray tube

Tube current (mA)
• Tube current is equal to the number of electrons flowing from the cathode to the anode per unit time
• Exposure of the beam for a given kVp and filtration is proportional to the tube current
![Page 37: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Kilovoltage Peak
• kVp
• One kilovolt is = to 1000 volts
• The amount of voltage selected for the
x-ray tube
• Range 45 to 120 kVp (diagnostic range)
• kVp controls contrast
![Page 43: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Tube voltage (kVp)
• Determines the maximum energy in the beam
• spectrum and affects the quality of the output spectrum
• Efficiency of x-ray production is directly related to tube voltage
![Page 44: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Contrast-the differences
between blacks to whites
• Kilovolts to anode side – kVp (40 -120)
• Kilovolts controls how fast the electrons are sent across the tube
• kVp – controls CONTRAST on images
• Low kVp – more absorbed – black - white
• High kVp - more grays on image
![Page 45: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Influencing factors: kVp
15% rule: 15% kVp = doubling of exposure to the film
15% kVp = halving of exposure to the film
15% rule will always change the contrast of the image because kV is the primary method of changing image contrast.
Remember : 15% change ( ) KVP has the same effect as
doubling or ½ the MAS on density

INVERSE SQAURE LAW
• Applies basic rules of geometry
• The intensity of radiation at a given distance from the point source is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
• Doubling the distance decreases intensity by a factor of four.
![Page 61: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
INVERSE SQUARE LAW
• The inverse square law –
• Used for RADIATION PROTECTION
• When you change your distance from the “radiation source”
• The intensity of radiation will be reduced by a square of the distance (MOVING AWAY FROM THE SOURCE)
• OR INCREASED – CLOSER TO SOURCE
![Page 62: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
DISTANCE
• Distance from the radiation source should be kept as great as possible
• Physical Law:
– Inverse Square Law
![Page 63: RT A 2009 WK 5 X-RAY TUBE & EXPOSURES INVERSE SQ LAW CIRCUITRY.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ccf5503460f9499b313/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

Why you see what you see
• The films or images have different levels of density – different shades of gray
• X-rays show different features of the body in various shades of gray.
• The gray is darkest in those areas that do not absorb X-rays well – and allow it to pass through
• the images are lighter in dense areas (like bones) that absorb more of the X-rays.
