ABSTRACT:
A diagnostic X-ray system operative in response to control signals from a stored program digital computer to generate an X-ray beam and to produce an image of the object through which the X-ray beam passes. The computer which is preferably a microprocessor has a plurality of selectable programs stored in a digital memory and is operable to control a plurality of operations such as maximizing image quality in terms of resolution, verifying the available anode heat capacity, providing the necessary wait time between successive exposures in a tomographic series, storing the X-ray tube(s) histories, storing and recalling X-ray factors on an anatomic basis and, among other things, making a calculation and display of a pseudo-dose.
