Computerized control with radiodiagnostic equipment in bronchopulmonary investigations

The authors propose a procedure and equipment for control by using a rotation table of a PYM-20M X-ray system with an image intensifier. A 4 x 4-cm beam field is used. The procedure makes it possible to lower X-ray loads in patients by 10-15 times, to calculate the absorbed integrated radiation dose...

Summary:The authors propose a procedure and equipment for control by using a rotation table of a PYM-20M X-ray system with an image intensifier. A 4 x 4-cm beam field is used. The procedure makes it possible to lower X-ray loads in patients by 10-15 times, to calculate the absorbed integrated radiation dose, to enhance the quality of plane films, to draw up a protocol of studies. This increases the accuracy of X-ray anatomic instrument position. The apparatus can be remotely controlled.
