METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC MAXIMUM POWER REGULATION FOR X-RAY UNIT AND DEVICE NEEDED FOR THIS PURPOSE

摘要

The aim of the invention is to provide a method for the operation of an x-ray apparatus such that maximum power is supplied at all times. For this purpose, the supply or input voltage for the x-ray tube must be half the voltage of the source ((Vbat)/2) or (Vline)/2), known as reference voltage (Vref). According to the method, in the event of a deviation from the reference voltage, the current supplied is modified, with the exposure time being modified, in order for maximum power to be supplied at all times. Specifically, the invention is based on a method which controls the current of the tube according to the supply voltage (batteries or grid).
