PORTABLE X-RAY DETECTOR UNIT

摘要

A portable X-ray detector unit includes a portable, hand-held cassette having exposure detection fields for measuring the level of radiation to which a subject to be imaged is exposed. An Automatic exposure control terminates radiation supplied to a subject when it is determined that the level of exposure exceeds a predetermined threshold as interpreted in the portable detector unit. A user-interface is provided to control the exposure detection fields and/or the automatic exposure control.
