Conventional Flouroscopy

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Who invented the fluoroscope?   Thomas Edison  
🗑
What year was the fluoroscope invented?   1896  
🗑
What kind of studies is the fluoroscope used for (static? dynamic?)   Dynamic  
🗑
At what mA is the xray tube operated at in fluoroscopy   less than 5 mA  
🗑
What are the structures of the eyes responsible for vision   rods and cones  
🗑
which structure of the eye is sensitive to low light (night vision)   rods  
🗑
which structure of the eye is used for daylight vision   cones  
🗑
What receives the incident xray beam after it leaves the patient   image-intensifier tube  
🗑
what is the IIT housed in   glass envelope  
🗑
After the xray beam passes glass, what does it come in contact with   Input phosphor  
🗑
What is the input phosphor made out of   cesium iodide  
🗑
what does the input phosphor do to the xray beam   converts it to visible light  
🗑
what is the next point of interaction after the input phosphor   photocathode  
🗑
what in the input phosphor made out of   cesium and antimony compounds  
🗑
what does the photocathode do when the input phosphor illuminates it   it reacts to the illumination by emitting electrons to anode  
🗑
what is the next point of interaction after the electrons pass the anode   output phosphor  
🗑
what happens to the electrons when they hit the output phosphor   they interact and produce light  
🗑
what is the output phosphor made out of   zinc cadmium sulfide  
🗑
why are there electrostatic focusing lenses and what do they do   because the electron pattern from the cathode is larger than the output phosphor it must be reduced, they control this  
🗑
what is the number of output light photons over the number of input xray photons   flux gain  
🗑
what is the multiplication of minification gain and flux gain   brightness gain  
🗑
what is the ratio of the square of the diameter of the input phosphor to the square of the diameter of the output phosphor   minification gain  
🗑
which type of image intensifier provides greater flexibility in all examinations   multifield image intensifiers  
🗑
what is the most common trifield tube size   25/17/12  
🗑
what is the reduction of brightness at the periphery of an image   vignetting  
🗑
which television camera tube is most often used in television flouro   vidicon  
🗑
what is a significant advantage to television monitoring   brightness level and contrast can be controlled electronically  
🗑
what structure converts the light signal from the output phosphor to an electrical signal   television camera tube or CCD  
🗑
what component is a heated filament that supplies constant electron current by thermionic emission   electron gun  
🗑
in digital flouro what is the mA operated at   its measured in hundreds of mA instead of less than 5 mA  
🗑
what is the time required for the xray tube to switch on   interrogation time  
🗑
what is the time required for the xray tube to switch off   extinction time  
🗑
What does DF use instead of a TV camera tube   charged couple device  
🗑
what is the CCD made of   crystalline silicon  
🗑
What makes the silicon in the CCD produce an electric charge   when the silicon is illuminated  
🗑
what is the principal advantage of CCDs   small focal size, ruggedness  
🗑
Name the advantages of CCD   high spatial res, high SNR, high DQE, no warm up time, no lag, no spatial distortion, no maintenance, unlimited life, unaffected by mag fields, linear response, lower patient dose  
🗑
name the advantages of flat panel image receptor over CCD   distortion free, High DQE, rectangular, improved contrast res, unaffected by mag fields  
🗑
what is progressive mode   when the electron beam of the TV cam tube sweeps the target assembly continuously from top to bottom  
🗑
what is replacing the cathode ray tube   flat panel image display  
🗑
which type of subtraction is where an image obtained at one time is subtracted from an image obtained at another time   temporal subtraction  
🗑
what is the initial x-ray pulsed exposure that is made   mask image  
🗑
what is an 18 gauge hollow needle with stylet   Seldinger needle  
🗑
which catheter is used for the femoral artery   H1 headhunter Hinck  
🗑
which catheter has a gentle curve used for celiac, renal, and mesenteric arteries   c2, cobra  
🗑
what are pigtail catheters used for   injecting contrast into a bouls  
🗑
what are the risks to an arteriogram   continued bleeding, reaction, blood clot, penetration  
🗑
what are some modifications on the xray tube for interventional radiography   small target angle, massive anode to withstand high heats  
🗑
what are some modifications on the high voltage generator for IR   12 pulse power capable of 100kW with low ripple  
🗑
