Question

Which of the following can be caused by errors in collimation

1. histogram analysis errors
2. exposure indicator errors
3. reader erasure errors

A. 1 & 2 only
B. 1 & 3 only
C. 2 & 3 only
D. 1, 2 & 3

Answer 1

Errors in collimation can cause histogram analysis errors and exposure indicator errors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Errors in collimation can cause histogram analysis errors and exposure indicator errors. Histogram analysis errors occur when the data collected from the x-ray image is incorrect due to improper collimation. Exposure indicator errors refer to inaccuracies in the measurement of the x-ray exposure, which can also be caused by collimation errors.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. 1 & 2 only. Reader erasure errors are not directly caused by errors in collimation.
