Can collimators be customized to accommodate different image receptor sizes?

Of course! Collimators can indeed be customized to accommodate different image receptor sizes. Collimators are devices used in radiography to restrict the X-ray beam to the area of interest, reducing unnecessary radiation exposure and improving image quality. They typically feature adjustable blades or shutters to shape and size the X-ray field.

Customization of collimators allows healthcare facilities to adapt them to various imaging requirements, including different sizes of image receptors used in digital radiography systems. By adjusting the collimator’s aperture size and shape, it can effectively match the dimensions of the image receptor, ensuring optimal X-ray beam alignment and coverage.

This customization not only enhances image quality by minimizing scattered radiation but also optimizes radiation dose management by focusing the X-ray beam precisely on the area of interest. As a result, medical staff can achieve accurate diagnostic imaging while maintaining radiation safety standards for patients. We are a manufacturer of X-ray machines and their accessories.
