Milliamperage-Distance Relation<br />
The milliamperage employed in any exposure technique should be in<br />
conformity with the manufacturer's rating <strong>of</strong> the x-ray tube. In most<br />
laboratories, however, a constant value <strong>of</strong> milliamperage is usually adopted<br />
for convenience.<br />
Rule: The milliamperage (M) required for a given exposure is directly<br />
proportional to the square <strong>of</strong> the focus-film distance (D). The equation is<br />
expressed as follows:<br />
