kilovoltage [kil″o-vol´tij]

in radiography, the x-ray tube peak voltage during an exposure, measured in kilovolts.

kilovoltage (kil´

vōl´t

j),

n the electrical potential difference between the anode and cathode of a radiographic tube.

kilovoltage, constant potential,

n the potential of a constant voltage generator, in constant potential kilovolts (kvcp).

kilovoltage, equivalent (effective kilovoltage),

n the kilovoltage of monoenergetic radiation having the same half-value layer (HVL) as the heterogeneous beam produced by the peak kilovoltage in question.

kilovoltage
