Typical exposure parameters
The default X-ray exposure parameters for each exposure type can be
customized. The device is delivered with a set of X-ray exposure parameters
that are intended as a guideline. The default X-ray exposure parameters are
only starting points that can be replaced by more specific X-ray exposure
parameters developed by the operator.
In the following table the dose values are expressed in µGym
2
(Dose Area
Product), the exposures are set with standard values for clinical investigations
on the patient and performed with the X-ray tube with a SID of 100 cm and
without grid.
The dose measurement has been performed according to IEC 60601-1-3 §
5.2.4.2 with the dosimetric chamber supplied with the equipment and the
collimator completely open.
