in a failure of arterial resistance and distributes over the large, unheated surface, attempting
to buil up enough charge to jump to the cathode.

7. Electron flow on this path moves without resistance toward
POSITIVE CONTRAST AGENT- an increase in the attenuation the x-ray tube
ability of structures filled with this material
8. Electron flow reaches the x-ray tubes heated cathode and
jumps to the anode
10. Electron flow from the anode moves without resistance back
towards the rectification circuit
