Veronica is a radiologist who is trying to reduce radiation exposure in her clinic. How can she achieve this through digital imaging?

• By using a sensor that is more sensitive to x-rays than conventional film

• By using a sensor that emits less radiation

• By using a sensor that absorbs all radiation

• By using a sensor that requires longer exposure times
