For the diagram above a maximum throughput of 30 exposures/hour was
used. This complies with a throughput of 15 patients/hour with typically 2
exposures done per patient. The measurement results in the figure above refer
to one exposure.

• S1,S2 (wall stand): 100 kV; SID 110 cm; tube/detector centre height
140cm over floor
• S3: 100 kV; SID 100 cm; table height of 70 cm (standard working height)

Figure 21: Measurement of scattered radiation in zones of occupancy (Sx)
For the diagram above a maximum throughput of 30 digital tomosynthesis
examinations/hour was used with a maximum X-ray source angle of 22° and a
large collimation focus. One digital tomosynthesis examination consists of 30
single exposures, which are triggered within a timeframe of 5.2 seconds. This
complies with a throughput of 30 patients/hour. The measurement results in
the figure above refer to one digital tomosynthesis exposure.
