Example: Suppose that with a given exposure time and kilovoltage, a<br />

properly exposed radiograph is obtained with 5mA (M1) at a distance <strong>of</strong><br />

12 inches (D1), and that it is desired to increase the sharpness <strong>of</strong> detail in the<br />

image by increasing the focus-film distance to 24 inches (D2). The correct<br />

milliamperage (M2) to obtain the desired radiographic density at the<br />

increased distance (D2) may be computed from the proportion:<br />
