PULSED FLUOROSCOPY MODE
2-1 Description
Standard Fluoroscopy emits radiation continuously for the duration of the acquisi-
tion. Pulsed Fluoroscopy reduces the patient’s dose by emitting radiation in short
bursts.
2-2 System Controlled Technique Factors
• Fixed or Automatically Selected Technique Factors: Pulse rates are variable
from 15fps/7.4fps/4fps.
• How automatic adjustment is controlled: Controlled by an exposure “trajec-
tory” calculated by the system per patient, per body part.
2-3 How to engage/ disengage
If available, this mode is engaged by selecting “Dig Pulsed” on the IUI interface
screen.
If pulsed fluoro option is available, pressing “Digital” on the IDD will toggle
between fluoro modes. Selecting Digital de-activates the other mode elections.
