ABSTRACT:
An X-ray generator comprising two high voltage generators which supply a positive and a negative potential to the anode and cathode, respectively, of an X-ray tube. The high voltage generator connected to the cathode is connected in series with a grid-controlled electron tube. The X-ray tube has a grounded electrode between its anode and cathode. If the grid voltage of the electron tube is changed so that the anode potential decreases, then there is an increase in the X-ray tube voltage and an increase in the voltage between the anode and electrode of the X-ray tube, thus increasing the tube current. Tube current and voltage are thus varied in the same sense by modifying the grid voltage, thus producing a fast dose rate control.
