  • In this video, we discuss the many factors that can be modified like exposure time and peak kilovoltage to change the radiographic image quality and radiation dose. Thanks for watching!

    Quick correction! I would like to clarify the table at the end of the video at 22:00. Increasing kVp increases the relative number of photons (quantity) and therefore increases the intensity of the x-ray beam... therefore, the resultant image has increased density. Increasing kVp also increases the mean energy of the beam (quality) which means the beam has more penetrating power... therefore, the resultant image has decreased contrast. Increasing filtration decreases the relative number of photons (quantity) and therefore decreases the intensity of the x-ray beam... therefore, the resultant image has decreased density. All of this is correct as shown in the table! However, this last point I want to make a correction. There are some nuances related to noise and scatter that convolute the issue, so instead I would encourage you to remember this: increasing filtration also INCREASES the mean energy of the beam (quality) by preferentially filtering out the lower energy photons which means the beam has more penetrating power... therefore, the resultant image has DECREASED contrast, not increased contrast.

    Hey Ryan, As always great videos with excellent information given in nut shell. In the last slide, the table is stating "Energy" and in the same column it is mentioned about the "contrast". But as you said they don't go hand in hand. You mentioned in the previous slide/comment.. about Higher KVP and Higher Filtration will lead to "Higher Energy" photons. So with "Higher KVP" -- "Energy" of the photons will "Increase" -- and "Contrast" will "Decrease" (as there is more penetrating power)

    • @mentaldental
      @mentaldental  Před 3 lety +3

      Yes, that is correct! With both higher kVp and more filtration, there are less low-energy photons and the contrast will decrease as a result.

    Dr. Ryan, I searched for contrast meaning using CZcams videos and I found that high contrast refers to more differences between the darkness and lightness results in more dark images and the lower contrast means less differences resulting in more lightish image. However, I saw opposite example mentioned in the lecture. Can you please help me to solve my confusion?

    If more energy causes more contrast, then acc to the last table why does the contrast decreases with increase in the tube potential?

    • @mentaldental
      @mentaldental  Před 3 lety +1

      More energy does not cause more contrast. On the tube potential slide, I talk about how a higher peak kilovoltage corresponds to lower contrast and a lower peak kilovoltage corresponds to higher contrast. This matches with the table found at the end of the video.

    You said increased energy results in higher energy photons which increases contrast. Then you said increasing Tube Potential increases both energy and intensity, therefore shouldn't increasing Tube Potential increase density AND contrast? Why does contrast decrease with increased Tube Potential?

    • @mentaldental
      @mentaldental  Před 3 lety +1

      I said that increased tube potential causes an increase in intensity and energy. Increased intensity leads to higher density, while increased energy leads to LOWER contrast. This is reflected in the last slide of the video.

      @@123jay456youknowY You know what, you're absolutely right. There are some nuances related to scatter and noise, but I would like to revise the chart at the end. Adding filtration (generally speaking) removes the lower energy photons and increases the penetrating power of the x-ray beam (quality) thereby reducing contrast. Thank you for pointing this out!
