- B.
  
  Reduce the amount of time that the patient is exposed to radiation
- C.
  
  Use fast exposure-time factor whenever possible
- D.
  
  Use slow exposure-time factor whenever possible
Correct Answer
D. Use slow exposure-time factor whenever possible

Explanation
The correct answer is to use fast exposure-time factor whenever possible. This is because reducing the exposure time helps to minimize the amount of radiation that the patient is exposed to. Using a fast exposure-time factor allows for a shorter duration of radiation exposure, thus reducing the potential harm to the patient. On the other hand, using a slow exposure-time factor would prolong the exposure time and increase the amount of radiation the patient receives, which goes against the principle of time reduction in radiation protection.

There are three cardinal are cardinal principles of radiation protection: time, distance, and shielding (TDS). If the patient is changed the double of the distance from its origin to the source of radiation, how we compensate the intensity of the beam?
- A.
  
  We increase the double of the mA in order to compensate the intensity
- B.
  
  We increase kVp three times from its original
- C.
  
  We increase the double of kVp from its original
- D.
  
  We increase four times the amount of mAs from its original
Correct Answer
D. We increase four times the amount of mAs from its original

Explanation
The correct answer is to increase four times the amount of mAs from its original. The intensity of the beam is directly proportional to the mAs (milliamperes per second) value. By increasing the mAs by four times, we are compensating for the increased distance and ensuring that the intensity of the beam remains the same. Increasing the mA or kVp values would not directly compensate for the increased distance.

Method used to calculate the effective absorbed dos for all types of ionizing radiation is call

The formula for Absorbed Dose-Equivalent:

The ADE method of calculating considers the differences in radiation damage by using a modifying or

QF stands for:

This factor is important as a measure biological damage an is used in calculation of the absorbed dose equivalent.

The term of LD 50/30 refers to the whole body dose of radiation that can be lethal to 50% of the exposed population within 30 days

What it means that 50% of the exposed population will survive for 60 days due to medical intervention?

Acute Radiation Syndrome include the following except

Short term effects of radiation occur when

Long term effects of radiation occur when

Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS) occurs when.

Late Somatic Effects appears when

Is the most important late somatic effect and is difficult to verify statistically.

It is important to reduce the radiation to this gland because it is very radio-sensitive and stores certain hormones that are very important for metabolism.

The Acute Radiation Syndrome presents the following major stages, except:

The ARS prodromal stage occurs when the patient receive_____within hours after the whole body is exposed.

During the ARS manifest illness period symptoms the following systems are affected, except?

There are three cardinal are cardinal principles of radiation protection: time, distance, and shielding (TDS) Related to the time reduction the responsibility of the radiographer is except?

There are three cardinal are cardinal principles of radiation protection: time, distance, and shielding (TDS). If the patient is changed the double of the distance from its origin to the source of radiation, how we compensate the intensity of the beam?

There are three cardinal are cardinal principles of radiation protection: time,distance,and shielding (TDS) In shielding the degree to which the quantity and energy of the x-ray photon decreased depend upon several factors, except:

Three categories of radiation sources can be generated in the x-ray room, except:

The sources of scattering and leakage radiation collectively are called primary radiation.

For equipment capable of operating up to 150 kVp, primary structural protective shielding should consist of __inch lead and be as high as feet from the x-ray room floor.

For secondary structural protective shielding should consist of __inch lead and be has high as,or extended to .

Air measure of x-ray radiation is made by what units?

The radiation equivalent man is equal to?

The radiation absorbed dose is equal to?

The Coulomb per kilogram is equal to?

Radiographic Review Quiz: Radiation Protection Questions! Trivia

Radiation dose-response relationship refers to:

The relationship between radiation and some biologic response is in:

TRUE OR FALSE: What it means the concept “linear, non threshold relationship” any amount of ionizing radiation no matter how small, may cause biologic effects(response)

If we say that there is no amount of radiation exposure that is safe we are talking about

It is the unit of measurement that relates to the quantity of absorbed dose and is an important concept in radiation biology
