Details
Device typeX-ray tube housing assembly, diagnostic: A metallic (e.g., steel, aluminium alloy) case that houses an x-ray tube to provide appropriate limits for x-ray leakage and adequate insulation to avoid electric risks during a diagnostic x-ray procedure. It includes sheet lead surrounds at appropriate locations to shield unwanted x-ray radiation and collimators near the aperture; it is usually filled with oil to prevent electrical arcs from the high-voltage components of the x-ray tube. The housing also includes attachment points, cooling means, high-voltage cables, and supports for the tube and cable receptacles. It may be an independent unit mounted in a tube support, or under a fluoroscopic table as a component of a radiographic system.
