Kilovoltage and Milliamperage
Electricity flows through a wire like water flows through a pipe. If the water is under low pressure, it will flow slowly. If it is under high pressure, the water flows faster and more water flows through the pipe each second. In Electricity, the "pressure" in the wire is measured in volts, or Kilovolts (thousands of volts), and the amount of electricity, called the current, flowing through the wire each second is measured in amperes or in milliamperes (a milliampere is one thousandth of an ampere).

Depending on the sentence structure it can be controlling kilovoltage (kV) and milliamperage (mAs)

: Jednostka miary "mAs" nie oznacza "milliamperes".//Przeczytaj definicję z www.bu.edu - link w mojej odpowiedzi.

Often, kilovoltage, milliamperage, and TIME are controlled separately.

mAs
To jest jednostka miar
mAs = miliamperosekundy

mAs (MILLIAMPERE SECONDS): A combination unit, which is the product of the tube current (expressed in mA) and the exposure time (expressed in seconds). The total output of an X-ray tube is directly proportional to the mAs (or either of its components).
