The problem of unequal subject radiographic density is solved by a
A)Thoraeus filter.
B)compensation filter.
C)K-edge filter.
D)grid.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A compensation filter is designed to even out variations in tissue density, thereby solving the problem of unequal subject radiographic density. It does this by absorbing more X-rays in thinner or less dense areas and allowing more X-rays to pass through thicker or denser areas, resulting in a more uniformly exposed radiograph.
