2. Shoe-fitting fluoroscope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoe-fitting_fluoroscope

   Clarence Karrer, the son of an X-ray equipment distributor, claims to have built the first unit in 1924 in Milwaukee, but had his idea stolen and patented by one of his father's employees. In the meantime, the British company Pedoscope filed a British patent application in 1924, granted in 1926, and claimed to have been building these machines ...

3. X-ray machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_machine

   An X-ray generator generally contains an X-ray tube to produce the X-rays. Possibly, radioisotopes can also be used to generate X-rays. [1]An X-ray tube is a simple vacuum tube that contains a cathode, which directs a stream of electrons into a vacuum, and an anode, which collects the electrons and is made of tungsten to evacuate the heat generated by the collision.

   X-ray: uses X-rays to produce images of structures within the body; video link: Contrast media for X-rays: to provide a high contrast image of the details of the viscera under study; e.g. salts of heavy metals, gas like air, radio-opaque dyes, organic iodides, etc. Echocardiography machine: sonography of the heart is done here to know its ...

5. X-ray detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_detector

   Fish bone pierced in the upper esophagus. Right image without contrast medium, left image during swallowing with contrast medium. To obtain an image with any type of image detector the part of the patient to be X-rayed is placed between the X-ray source and the image receptor to produce a shadow of the internal structure of that particular part of the body.

6. Industrial radiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_radiography

   X-ray generators produce X-rays by applying a high voltage between the cathode and the anode of an X-ray tube and in heating the tube filament to start the electron emission. The electrons are then accelerated in the resulting electric potential and collide with the anode, which is usually made of Tungsten .

7. Flat-panel detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-panel_detector

   Flat-panel detectors are a class of solid-state x-ray digital radiography devices similar in principle to the image sensors used in digital photography and video. They are used in both projectional radiography and as an alternative to x-ray image intensifiers (IIs) in fluoroscopy equipment.
