Radiology equipment

Radiology equipment is used in the medical profession for the purpose of creating images that expose internal parts of the body.

Radiology equipment

Cone beam computed tomography

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

Also known as kV CBCT or MV CBCT, this volumetric imaging technique uses an X-ray source, either kV or MV, to traverse a given trajectory around the object, while a two-dimensional detector (kV or MV ...

Concentrated load

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

Important value for panel use (f. E. 90 kgs maximum concentrated load)

3d volumetric image

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

A type of image scan, whether computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET).

3d-3d match

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

Matching of CBCT images acquired using the onboard kV imager, with the reference CT dataset. Matching is generally based on soft-tissue anatomy but may also be based on bony anatomy.

3d view

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

View of an object in three physical dimensions (as opposed to planar image). Usually the object also can be rotated and tilted to be seen from other sides.

3d coordinate system

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

3D Cartesian coordinate system provides the three physical dimensions of space: length, width, height (x, y, z). The three axes defining the system are perpendicular to each other.

2d-2d match

Medical devices; Radiology equipment

Matching of two acquired images--typically kV/kV but possibly MV/kV or MV/MV--with their corresponding reference images. The matching is based primarily on bony anatomy.
