Collimator Technology and Advances

As we all know, the X-ray head is to be used together with the collimator. Its purpose is to control the irradiation field of X-rays and control the amount of radiation. The X-ray machine has undergone many upgrades since its birth, and the technology of the collimator has also improved. So what is the technology and progress of the collimator, let’s explore it.
The beam light device is also called the beam limiter and the collimator. It is an important accessory of the X-ray machine. It is installed under the tube to limit the irradiation range of the X-ray. When the switch of the beamer is turned on, a beam of light will be emitted, and the place where the light is irradiated is the irradiation range of X-rays, that is, the place where we need to shoot and detect, so the beamer also has the function of positioning, and at the same time reduces stray scattering The line is issued, reducing the X-ray radiation received by the operating doctor and the patient.

With the continuous development of X-ray machines, the technology of collimators is also constantly improving. Now there are collimators suitable for fixed X-ray machines, collimators suitable for mobile X-ray machines, feedback type electric collimators and dose type electric collimators. The collimator is divided into manual, automatic and fully automatic according to the operation mode. More variety and better functionality.
The above is a brief introduction to the technology and progress of the collimator.
