300
absorption of the beam in matter
What is attenuation?
300
up and down movement increasing of decreasing the distance from tube to table

400
lower energy x-ray formed in the patient
What is scatter?
400
Special mechanism that stops the tube from moving at specific point.

What is extension?
400
This is when the beam goes from the back of a person to the front (patient is facing the IR)
What is PA
500
Ionizing radiation is this type of wavelength
What is longer wavelengths?
500
A boxlike device under the tube housing, shows the field size
