Answer to Question 1

kVp

Rationale: kVp directly affects penetration of the part, affecting contrast, and secondarily contributing to density.

Answer to Question 2

use the plus density setting

Rationale: Additive pathologies such as ascites, pneumonia, congestive heart failure, edema, and rheumatoid arthritis require an increase in technical factors from the normal patient. Patients imaged with AEC and have known additive pathologies can be imaged by adding the plus density setting.
