The amount of filtration of the x-ray beam is specified by and based on the voltage potential (keV) used to produce the beam. The thickness of filter materials is dependent on atomic numbers, kilovoltage settings, and the desired filtration factor.
X-rays and gamma rays-Higher tier. X-rays are manufactured by an x-ray machine. A hot cathode emits electrons that are attracted to a tungsten anode. When the fast-moving electrons hit the metal target, most of their kinetic energy is transferred to heat but some is transferred to x-rays.-rays, gamma rays and beta particles are all used in medicine to treat internal organs. X-rays are produced by firing electrons at a metal target and gamma rays are emitted by the nucleus of radioactive atoms. Gamma rays are used to kill cancer cells, to sterilise medical equipment and in radioactive tracers.
