milliamperes (mAs) Explanation: IMO -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 mins (2015-06-30 11:13:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Kilovoltage and Milliamperage Electricity flows through a wire like water flows through a pipe. If the water is under low pressure, it will flow slowly. If it is under high pressure, the water flows faster and more water flows through the pipe each second. In Electricity, the "pressure" in the wire is measured in volts, or Kilovolts (thousands of volts), and the amount of electricity, called the current, flowing through the wire each second is measured in amperes or in milliamperes (a milliampere is one thousandth of an ampere). - See more at: http://doctorspiller.com/Dental radiology/x-ray_characterist... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 mins (2015-06-30 11:15:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Depending on the sentence structure it can be controlling kilovoltage (kV) and milliamperage (mAs) |

mAs Explanation: To jest jednostka miar mAs = miliamperosekundy czyli iloczyn: prąd x czas http://www.wsse.gda.pl/laboratoria/laboratorium-badan-higien... file:///C:/Users/Andrzej%20Mierzejewski/Downloads/DRAFT%20zalecenia%20PTFM.pdf -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2015-06-30 12:08:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/milliampere-... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2015-06-30 12:20:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- W jednostkkach mAs określa się obciążenie prądowo-czasowe, patrz http://www.wok-opole.pl/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/protokol2... - strona 5 mAs (MILLIAMPERE SECONDS): A combination unit, which is the product of the tube current (expressed in mA) and the exposure time (expressed in seconds). The total output of an X-ray tube is directly proportional to the mAs (or either of its components). www.bu.edu/ehs/files/.../BU-X-ray-Safety-Guide-v-3-1101-201... |
