Quick Checks
International regulations recommend that the radiation and light field should be aligned within 2 % of the Source-to-Image Distance (SID) or even ± 5 mm at the chest wall for mammo. The RaySafe DXR+ sensor array has been specially designed to meet the needs of real-time checks of the light and radiation field alignment on radiographic and mammographic X-ray equipment.
RaySafe DXR+ provides an accurate and instantaneous result where an adjustment is needed. A metric scale inside the RaySafe DXR+ is visible on the X-ray image.
