RT LESSON 15

QUIZ
Kindly select A for TRUE & B for FALSE 1 to 14
1. X-ray exposure charts are developed for use with a certain film type, but can be used for any
tube head that has the same voltage rating.
2. An X-ray exposure chart designed for steel could be used for brass if the proper equivalent
factor is considered.
3. To use a gamma exposure chart, the radiographer must know the activity of the isotope at that
specific time.
4. An isotope decay chart is based on the original activity of the source when it was supplied
to the user.
5. If the radiographer knows the activity in curies, he can find the source-to-film distance by
using the decay chart.
6. If the equivalence factor is known, an X-ray exposure chart can be used instead of a gamma
exposure chart to find the exposure factor.
7. The equivalence factor is simply a multiplication factor to find the equivalent thickness of a
material based on a standard material.
8. If you wanted to X-ray 1 inch of copper using 150 KV, and the equivalence factor was 1.6,
the equivalent thickness in steel would be 2.6 inches.
9. Geometric unsharpness can be affected by source-to-film distance.
10. Geometric unsharpness can be affected by specimen-to-film distance.
11. As a general rule, you should try to obtain the lowest contrast possible when making a
radiograph.
12. Unsharpness will increase as you increase the source to film distance.
13. The standard equivalence chart is always based on the use of steel as the standard material for
use in gamma radiography.
14. The X-ray exposure chart is not affected by the use of lead foil screens.
Kindly select best possible answer for 15 to 18
15. Using 3.8 mm size, 16 Ci Ir-192, source to object distance 30 cm, film having F.F. 1.8, what

(A) 4 Min. 21 Sec.
(B) 4 Min. 26 Sec.
(C) 4 Min. 52 Sec.
(D) None of the
above.
16. Using 3.8 mm size, 16 Ci Ir-192, source to object distance 30 cm, film having F.F. 1.8, what
will be the minimum SFD can be use for RT of 25 mm CS weld joint ?
(A) 176 cm
(B) 201 cm
(C) 176 mm
(D) 211 mm
17. Using X-ray machine RT is carried out at 220 KV / 3 MA for 3 minutes exposure at 40 cm
FFD. If MA used 6 MA instead of 3 MA, what would be the exposure time for same KV and
FFD ?
(A) 6 Minute
(B) 3 Minute
(C) 4 Minute
(D) None of the above.
18. Using X-ray machine RT is carried out at 220 KV / 3 MA for 3 minutes exposure at 40 cm
FFD. If FFD used 20 cm instead of 40 cm, what would be the exposure time for same KV and
FFD ?
(A) 9 Minute
(B) 6 Minute
(C) 1.5 Minute
(D) 0.75 Minute
