What happens if the kVp of an X-ray beam remains the same and the mA setting is increased?

If the kVp is kept the same but the mA is increased, the x-ray will have more contrast but there will be no increase in penetration. Increasing kV by 10 is the about the same as doubling the mAs. If the patient is large, then it is better to increase the kV. If the x-ray is too grey, then it is better to increase the mAs.
