sten Alloy X-ray Tube in Various Generations of CT-3

Sampling Geometries of the beam: The sampling geometry of the beam in CT scanners along the different generations can be described as three configurations: Further advances: Another limiting factor in image acquisition was tungsten alloy X-ray tube. The need for long, high intensity exposures and very stable output placed enormous demands on:

Further advances: Another limiting factor in image acquisition was tungsten alloy X-ray tube. The need for long, high intensity exposures and very stable output placed enormous demands on both the tube and generator (power supply). Very high performance rotating anode tubes were developed to keep up with demand for faster imaging, as were the regulated 150 kV switched mode power supplies to drive them. Modern systems have power ratings up to 100 kW.
