kVp:
Connect an HV voltage divider (Machlett Dynalizer IIIA; ratio 10 kV/1 V) in series with the
x-ray tube and measure the voltage with a multimeter (Fluke 47)
D
mAs:
Connect an HV voltage divider (Machlett Dynalizer IIIA; ratio 10 kV/1 V) in series with the
x-ray tube. Connect a waveform analyzer (Tektronix 7854) to the output of the divider; the analyzer
receives a signal proportional to the voltage applied to the tube. The mAs values are given by:
mAs =

Where T1 is the time at which the high voltage reaches 75% of its maximum value, and
T is the time at which the high voltage returns to 75% of the maximum value.
