Technology of JSB DR

The most important part of the X-ray diagnostic system is the X-ray detector. The value of the detector among various components of the equipment, whether the system is CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) or FPD (Flat Panel Detector), is around 45 to 55% of the entire cost. The greatest difference between the general X-ray diagnostic system and the scan-type digital X-ray system offered by JSB Medics is the gas chamber type X-ray diagnostic equipment which makes it possible to see through large sized subjects even with low level of radiation. To rephrase, X-ray radiated in line form penetrates the subject, to be entered into the gas chamber form X-ray detector behind the subject. The X-ray generator and detector move to the concerned area in a constant speed to shoot the subject. The gas chamber form X-ray detector is filled with xenon (Xe) gas which is ionized by the X-ray. This in turn is turned into an image after being quantified by the ion counter. The following shows the advantages of the "scan-type X-ray diagnostic system" developed by JSB Medics when compared to the existing CCD or FPD.
