X Ray Image Production. This spectrum can be manipulated by changing the x ray tube current or voltage settings or by adding filters to select out low energy x rays. To produce a radiographic image x ray photons must pass through tissue and interact with an image receptor a device that receives the radiation leaving the patient such as a film screen or digital system.
To reduce this redundant radiation dose to the patient these x ray photons are removed. An x ray generator gives power to the x ray tube. Both the quantity and quality of the primary x ray beam affect its interaction within the various tissues that make up the anatomic part.

An x ray generator gives power to the x ray tube. The x ray tube is a relatively simple electrical device typically containing two principle elements. 5 3 illustrates a simple x ray tube with its principal parts labeled. To reduce this redundant radiation dose to the patient these x ray photons are removed.
