a. Explain why filtering of an X-ray beam causes a simultaneous decrease in beam quantity and increase in quality [a diagram may be useful] b. The two main mechanisms by which X-rays interact with matter are via Compton scattering and absorption by the photoelectric effect. By referring to the dependence of these effects on X-ray energy, explain what happens to X-ray image quality when using excessively high tube voltages
