Radiography

Shimadzu's general radiographic system is equipped with an advanced generator designed state-of-the-art high-frequency inverter technology. The 50kHz high-frequency generator consistently produces sharp and crisp X-ray images, an achievement attributable to the advanced generator's higher quality X-ray output with a very small kV ripple and highly accurate timer control. These characteristics, inherent in a high-frequency generator, reduce radiation dose to patients by eliminating lower energy X-rays (soft X-rays), making it superior to and safer than other types of generators, e.g. twelve-pulse generators. Shimadzu generators feature an operator-friendly function called Sequential Multi-directional Radiography. This feature allows a radiographer to enter and utilize up to 7 sequential preset parameters in memory. The intelligent system automatically steps to the next preset exposure factors at the end of every exposure. This unique function is another Shimadzu innovation that enhances productivity and user-friendliness.
