The relationship between milliampere-seconds (mAs) and density in radiographic imaging is directly proportional. Increasing the mAs results in more X-ray photons being produced, which enhances the exposure of the imaging receptor and subsequently increases the radiographic density (the degree of blackening on the film). Conversely, decreasing the mAs leads to fewer X-ray photons and reduced density. Therefore, mAs adjustments are crucial for achieving optimal image quality.
