What is the function of the ruler on the X-ray collimator?

X-ray collimators are tools used in medical equipment to adjust and control the diameter and direction of X-ray beams. The ruler is an important part of the collimator. Its function is to measure and adjust the size and position of the X-ray beam to ensure that the X-rays can accurately irradiate the target area.
There are usually graduation marks on the ruler to measure the distance between the collimator and the object to determine the propagation path and irradiation angle of the X-ray beam. By adjusting the scale, operators can accurately control the diameter and angle of the X-ray beam to meet the needs of different patients and examination requirements.
Additionally, the ruler can be used to determine the center position of the X-ray beam. In X-ray inspection, accurately determining the center position of the X-ray beam is crucial to obtaining accurate images. Through its scale and beam indicator, operators can adjust the center position of the X-ray beam as needed to ensure image quality and diagnostic accuracy.
In short, the ruler on the X-ray collimator plays a key role in X-ray diagnostic work. It can help the operator accurately adjust and control the diameter, angle and position of the X-ray beam, thereby ensuring accurate inspection and diagnostic results.
