Thoraeus filter
An essential radiological filter consisting of tin is employed as the primary filter, complemented by a secondary filter composed of copper to absorb the characteristic radiation emitted by the tin. Furthermore, a third filter made of aluminum is utilized to absorb the characteristic radiation produced by the copper. In the kilovolt range of 200 to…

Thermoelectron
Electrons are released through the process of heating a metal filament, which serves as the filament within an x-ray tube.
-
Thermionic vacuum tube
Any electronic tube equipped with a filament exhibits the ability to emit electrons upon heating. Examples of such tubes include x-ray tubes, valve tubes, photo tubes, and various others.

Thermal radiation
Heat radiation, a phenomenon observed in all objects with a temperature above absolute zero, manifests as thermal energy emission. This radiant energy encompasses a range of wavelengths, spanning from the briefest ultraviolet rays, through the spectrum of visible light, to the most extended infrared wavelengths. It is commonly referred to as heat due to its…

Therapy tube
A specialized x-ray tube specifically crafted for the purpose of x-ray therapy is distinguished from its diagnostic counterpart by operating at lower milliamperage and higher kilovoltage. The construction of a therapy tube deviates to some extent from that of a diagnostic tube. Notably, the focal spot is considerably larger, and it incorporates a stationary node…

Electrical temperature
As the electrical temperature elevates, the resistance within a circuit experiences a proportional augmentation.
-
Effect on screen speed temperature
If the room temperature increases, the speed of the screen decreases, but the two have a tendency to cancel each other. An alteration in technique under these conditions is not necessary.

Television screen
The luminescent display panel housed within the cathode ray tube of a television set.
-
Television lines
The television raster is formed by the horizontal lines produced as a result of the trajectory followed by the electron beams used to scan the pick-up and kinescope tubes.
