All three options, glass, dielectric oil, and aluminum, are considered filter media as the beam passes through them before reaching the patient. Glass is commonly used in x-ray tubes as a window, while dielectric oil is used in oil-immersed transformers. Aluminum is often used as a built-in filter in x-ray equipment to remove low energy x-rays before they reach the patient, as they are more likely to be absorbed by the skin and contribute to unnecessary dose.
