5. Measurements with the Barracuda System
Fluoroscopy and Pulsed Fluoroscopy

3. Tap Hold to acquire waveforms. The third screen displays the waveform for the
earlier screen.
4. Tap Hold again to "release" the display.
5. The last screen above shows actually the same measurement with added 10 mm
filter to reduce the dose rate even further. Note that the kV value is the same since
the MPD, even on this extremely low level, still makes corrections for the beam
filtration.
The Barracuda can measure both kV and dose rate at very low levels for instance on
Mini C-arm systems. Barracuda can (as an example) successfully measure the tube
voltage as low as 43 kV with a 25 µA tube current.
