X Ray Tube Anode - Filter

Anode / Filter combinations

 Mo/Mo, Mo/Rh, W/Rh
 Low density

= Mo/Mo
 Medium density

= Mo/Rh
 Large or very dense

= W/Rh
(M 3000 Nova only)

 Four focal spots

 Small/large with Mo/W
 Small is used in connection with
magnification

Restricted © Siemens AG 20XX All rights reserved.  Anode rotation is ca. 8800 U/min

 What are the differences between a
Mammogram and a normal x-ray?
Quetions

High spatial resolution, 13 lp/mm compared with 5 lp/mm for a chest

x-ray.

High contrast resolution. Small changes in soft tissue must be

depicted.

Low kV (25), low dose (2 mGy)

Extremely sensitive for variations in the development process.
