What is the minimum length required for a mobile x-ray cable?

5 meters
2 meters
3 meters
4 meters

The correct answer is: 3 meters

In a clinical setting, the minimum length required for a mobile x-ray cable is established to ensure both safety and functionality. A mobile x-ray cable needs to be long enough to allow the radiographer to safely position the x-ray machine while providing adequate distance from the patient to minimize radiation exposure. A cable length of 3 meters meets these requirements by allowing for flexibility in positioning the machine and maintaining a safe distance during operation. This standard is designed to ensure that health professionals follow appropriate safety protocols while accommodating the typical dimensions of most examination rooms and patient areas. The other lengths, either shorter or longer than 3 meters, may not provide the necessary balance of safety and operational effectiveness.
