Are there specific requirements for collimators for special imaging modalities such as angiography?

In angiography, which involves imaging blood vessels using contrast agents, precise collimation is crucial for optimizing image quality and reducing radiation exposure to the patient and medical staff. Collimators used in angiography must offer a high degree of control over the X-ray beam’s size and shape to focus the radiation precisely on the area of interest, such as specific blood vessels or vascular structures. Additionally, these collimators often incorporate advanced features like adjustable blade widths, asymmetric collimation, and precise angulation capabilities to accommodate the unique anatomical variations and imaging requirements encountered in angiographic procedures. Furthermore, collimators in angiography systems may integrate specialized filters or grids to enhance contrast and reduce scatter radiation, further improving image clarity and diagnostic accuracy. Overall, collimators for angiography are tailored to meet the specific needs and challenges of vascular imaging, ensuring optimal outcomes for patients undergoing these procedures. We are a manufacturer of X-ray machines and their accessories.
