Answer to Question 1

neurogenic shock

Rationale: Neurogenic shock can result from a concussion or spinal cord injury causing blood to pool in veins and reduce cardiac output.

Answer to Question 2

kVp

Rationale: kVp affects the penetration of the beam. The greater the kVp, the greater the photon energy, the greater paths of deflection upon tissue interaction increasing the contrast scale.
