What is the effect of increasing filter on the x-ray?

  1. Increases quantity and quality

  2. Decreases quantity and increases quality

  3. Increases quantity and decreases quality

  4. Decreases quantity and quality

The correct answer is: Decreases quantity and increases quality

Increasing the filter on an x-ray will decrease the quantity of x-rays that pass through the body, while increasing the quality of the x-ray image produced. This is because the filter reduces the amount of scattered radiation, resulting in a clearer and more accurate image. Option A is incorrect because increasing the filter will not increase the quantity of x-rays. Option C is incorrect because increasing the filter will not decrease the quality of the x-ray image. Option D is incorrect because decreasing the filter will actually increase the quantity of x-rays but decrease the quality of the image.
