X ray imaging and radiography.

Post by deleted-671460 »

Why does altering the x ray tube affect the image produced on the radiograph, the factors being voltage current, target (atomic no.) and filters.
And why would you use these factors to control the production of the radiograph in medical imaging.

And how does the photoelectric effect and Compton scattering additionally affect this.

Hi,

This forum is intended for students, parents, and teachers working on K-12 science projects. If your question is related to a science project, please post some details such as your hypothesis, research question or experimental plan. If you are looking for help with homework or general science discussions there are other sites that should be able to answer your question.
