In actual practice, how is milliampere seconds (MAS) calculated when producing conventional radiographs?
A)Multiply milliamperage by exposure time
B)Multiply kVp by milliamperage
C)Divide milliamperage by exposure time
D)Divide kVp by milliamperage

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Multiply milliamperage by exposure time to calculate milliampere seconds (MAS). For example, if the technique were set to 100 MA and 1/10 seconds, then the MAS would be 10. 100 MA x 1/10 = 10 MAS.
