5. Measurements with the Barracuda System
Fluoroscopy and Pulsed Fluoroscopy
Barracuda & QABrowser Reference Manual
2012-10/4.3A
128
The displays with measured values are continuously updated every four seconds.
Add 10 mm of aluminum. The Barracuda will "notice" that the filtration is changed and
shows a new total filtration value.
The dose rate is now much lower. The added filtration does not affect measured kVp at
all.
Note how the Barracuda directly responds to a sudden change of the filtration. The
display is continuously updated with the kV, time and dose-rate. The dose rate value
decreases when the extra 10 mm Al is put in the beam but the continuously updated
kV value is practically are the same.
