EOS is a medical imaging system designed to provide frontal and lateral radiography images, while limiting the X-ray dose absorbed by the patient in a sitting or standing position. The system relies on the high sensitivity of a detector (multi-wire chamber) invented by Georges Charpak, which earned him the 1992 Nobel prize. This technology not ...
GE HealthCare Technologies, Inc. [1], organized in Delaware and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, focuses on health technology.The company operates 4 divisions: Medical imaging, which includes molecular imaging, computed tomography, magnetic resonance, women’s health screening and X-ray systems; Ultrasound; Patient Care Solutions, which is focused on remote patient monitoring, anesthesia ...
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.
With a vertically traveling arm supporting two fine X-ray beams perpendicular to one another, the EOS system acquires frontal and lateral, weight-bearing images of the patient in a functional – standing or sitting – position. These biplanar images are then used to create a 3D model of the patient's skeleton.

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.
Like a conventional machine used for X-ray external beam radiotherapy (often referred to as a linear accelerator or linac, their main component), it [the tomotherapy machine] generates the radiation beam, but the external appearance of the machine, patient positioning, and treatment delivery differ. Conventional linacs do not work on a slice-by ...
