kVp and contrast: Low contrast many shades of grey?

I totally understand! 🦷

All the resources you will be able to pull out basically say the same thing over and over and it's the verbiage that is confusing. 😩

💁‍♀️ High kVp = many shades of gray = long scale contrast = low contrast (between each scale).I think the most confusing part is the "contrast" part. 🤦‍♀️

High contrast is may seem like it would be high kVp, but it is actually the opposite. To get black and white images, we need low kVp. ☝️

"Less attenuation" means that the shades of grey are less visibly different from one another. 🤗 Watch this video to get clarification! 🦷🦷🦷

This is what I'm getting: with higher levels of kVp, you get more varying levels of photon energy; thus more levels of penetration/contrast.

If 44 KVp is used to image the Abdomen of 25 cm thickness what is the expected resulted image? why ?

Does increasing hardness of x-ray increase contrast?
