At RSNA 2019, Varex will display innovative Solutions in Sight™.\n\n\nInnovative X-ray Tube Technology\n\n\nA new curved array nanotube (NT) prototype will be unveiled to open discussions with customers about developing new products and applications. The NT2518C is a 25-emitter tube prototype available for use in Static Breast Tomosynthesis Systems as well as different industrial and medical applications.(1)\n\n\nNanotube technology replaces traditional coiled filament in a traditional X-ray tube with a multibeam field emission cold cathode nanotube emitter. This technology enables X-ray tubes to be manufactured using arrays of small emitters ideally suited for portable tomosynthesis systems, Mobile C-Arm surgical systems, and portable computed tomography (CT) systems, among other medical imaging applications. Varex and its joint venture partner VEC Imaging GmbH & Co. Kg, based in Erlangen Germany, developed this nanotube technology.\n\n\nVarex will also introduce its liquid metal bearing (LMB) technology to its X-ray tube portfolio with the first-to-market anode and grounded tube FP-1596-LMB for cardiovascular applications and G-507X-LMB for CT applications. LMB technology removes the usual delay from exposure to boost time as LMB tubes are continuously rotating at speed and can achieve instant high-power exposure. The Varex LMB technology adds to the life o...
