A film's response to radiation exposure may be plotted by use of a graph known as the:
|
H & D curve, sensitometric curve, characteristic curve
|
|
When sensitometric testing is performed on an automatic processor, the acceptable range of variation for speed and contrast is:
|
±0.10
|
|
Jamming of films in the processor may be caused by:
|
Rollers out of alignment
|
|
Which of the following statements best describes the replenishment system of an automatic processor?
|
Adds fresh developer and fixer each time a film is fed into the processor
|
|
Which of the following statements best describes the dryer system of an automatic processor?
|
Helps seal emulsion with heat, dries film, works at approximately 120º F
|
|
Which of the following best describes ideal storage conditions for x-ray film?
|
Protected from radiation, fumes, outdating
68º to 70º F, 40% to 60% humidity |
|
The function of the wash tank is to:
|
Remove chemistry from film
|
|
The function of automatic processing is to:
|
Make the latent image visible
|
|
Which of the following statements best describes the transport system of an automatic processor?
|
Moves film through processor with a series of rollers and racks and agitates chemistry
|
|
The emulsion of radiographic film consists of:
|
Sensitivity specks attached to silver halide crystals
Gelatin in which silver halide crystals are suspended |
|
Emulsion scratches that run the length of the film in the direction of film travel are usually caused by:
|
Guide shoes out of adjustment
|
|
Contamination of developer by fixer will cause:
|
Increased fog on the radiograph
|
|
The purpose of adding blue dye to the base of radiographic film is to:
|
Reduce glare and enhance contrast for viewing the image
|
|
Which of the following statements best describes the recirculation system of an automatic processor?
|
Agitates developer solution, maintains temperature, removes by-products of chemical reactions
|
|
Sensitivity specks on silver halide crystals serve as:
|
Development centers for building the manifest image
|
