The optimum radiographic technique selection to produce a high quality image is a difficult task. The quality of a radiograph is not easy to define, a number of factors that are complexly interrelated affect radiographic quality, but there is no precise and universally accepted measures by which to judge high quality image have been identified. In this work, a contrast-detail phantom was used to study the image quality with different kVp and mAs. The results from this contrast-detail phantom study showed that between 40kVp to 60kVp, IQF (image quality figure) decrease with kVp and mAs, and 15% rule is workable in this kVp range.
