Kilovolts peak definition

Kilovolts peak or “kVp” means the maximum value of the potential difference across an x−ray tube during an expo- sure.
Kilovolts peak or "kVp" means the maximum value of the potential difference across an x-ray tube during an exposure.
Kilovolts peak means the crest value of kilovolts of the potential of a pulsating potential generator and, when only one-half of the wave is used, the value refers to the useful half of the wave;
