Measuring kV on Hologic MultiCare
BACKGROUND
The X-ray tube in Hologic MultiCare has an anode angle of 16˚.
Since RaySafe X2, Xi and Solo MAM sensors are calibrated using an anode angle of 22˚, you need to correct the kV value when measuring on Hologic MultiCare.
INSTRUCTIONS
Corrected kV value = Measured kV value – 0.4 kV
EXAMPLE
Your RaySafe sensor measures 26.6 kV.
Corrected kV value = 26.6 kV – 0.4 kV
The corrected kV value is 26.2 kV
