Question

In an effort to decrease the mAs of an exposure, the 15% rule of kVp change may be considered. Changing the original kVp of 84 using the 15% rule will have what impact

Answer 1

Will result in :Greater Compton scatter interaction

Step-by-step explanation

This is because The 15% rule states that changing the kVp by 15% has the same effect as doubling the mAs, or reducing the mAs by 50%; that is A 15% increase in kVp has the same effect as doubling the mAs and vice versa but in this case reducing mas causes more Compton scatter because Compton scattering occurs at a lower kvp
