Answer to Question 1

0.50 mm Al

Rationale: Total filtration requirements for tubes operating below 50 kVp is 0.5 mm Al, 1.5 mm Al for tubes operating between 50-70 kVp, and 2.5 mm Al for tubes operating above 70 kVp.

Answer to Question 2

Positive Beam Limitation

Rationale: Positive Beam Limitation (PBL) is a form of collimation that automatically happens when the image receptor is placed within the Bucky. When activated, the light field automatically adjusts to the field size and orientation.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
