"In fluoroscopy however, where multiple images in ever changing geometry are acquired, manual adjustment of kVp is not feasible. Therefore, ABC systems constantly adjust both mAs and kVp 1,3.

Some ABC systems also adjust the filters 1."

Line 3:234 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-programmed,'.
