Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. Total brightness gain can be calculated by using the following mathematical formula: Brightness gain = Minification gain Flux gain.
2. To determine digital pixel size, multiply the FOV in mm by the matrix size.
3. One rem is equal to one Sievert (Sv).
4. In SI units, 2.58 × 10?4 Coulomb/kilogram (C/kg) in air is equal to 1 Roentgen.
5. Becquerel (Bq) is the SI unit for radioactive material, and rad is the traditional unit.


1. TRUE Total brightness gain refers to the increased amount of brightness and is the product of minification gain and flux gain.
2. FALSE Digital pixel size is measured in millimeters; divide the FOV by the matrix size.
3. FALSE One Sv is equal to 100 rem.
4. TRUE Roentgen is the traditional measure for exposure in air.
5. FALSE Curie (Ci) is the traditional unit for radioactive material.
