1. INTRODUCTION

This manual applies to the diagnostic X-Ray Generators, models KXO-30R,

KXO-30F, and KXO-50F, and describes the system setting, the electrical
performance check, and the adjustment and test to ensure the proper X-ray
exposure precision.

Before adjusting the generator as described in this manual, check that the
equipment has been installed according to the installation manual
(2C313-020E) and understand operating method given in the operation
manual.

Refer to the wiring diagram supplied with the equipment when performing
the adjustment or test.

These tests are to be performed after installation to meet the

requirements of the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968
and all regulations required in Title 21 of the Code of Federal
Regulation.

2.2 Precautions

2.2.1 Introduction

One of the most important considerations in X-ray work is protection

against the hazards of X-radiation. X-ray equipment properly used does
not pose any danger; however, careless or improper usage can be
dangerous. Therefore, it is essential that all service or operating
personnel of this equipment must fully understand the problem
themselves. They should also be thoroughly familiar and acquainted
with the instructions in this manual pertaining to proper use of the
equipment.

2.2.2 Maximum permissible dose

Various studies on the effects of X-ray radiation have provided the

foundation for establishing maximum permissible dose of X-radiation.
The results of these studies used by the National Council on Radiation
Protection and the International Comittee on Radiation Protection to
develop recommendat ions for the maximum permissible does (MPD).

The I.C.R.P. recommendations can be interpreted to say that the maximum

permissible dose (MPD) to the most critical organs, accumulated at any
age, shall not exceed 5 x 10 -2Sv (5 rems} multiplied by the number of
years beyond age 18 and the dose in any 13 consecutive weeks shall not
exceed 3 x 10s2Sv (3 rems}. Thus, for those involved in radiological
works, accumulation MPD equals 5(N-18) x 10W2Sv {5(N-18) rems), where N
is the age in years and is greater than 18. For the hands, forearms,
feet, and ankles of radiologists, the MPD is set at 75 x 10T2Sv
(75 rems} a year.

2.2.3 Manufacturer’s responsibility

Although this equipment incorporates protection against X-radiation

other than the useful beam, practical design cannot provide complete
protection. The design of the equipment does not compel the operator
or his assistants to take adequate precautions, or prevent the
possibility of authorized or unauthorized persons carelessly, unwisely
or unknowingly exposing themselves or others to direct or secondary
radiation. Therefore, only authorized and properly trained persons
should operate this equipment.

All persons authorized to use the equipment must be cognizant of the

danger of excessive exposure to X-radiation. The equipment is sold
with the understanding of the TOSHIBA CORPORATION. Medical Equipment
Division, its agents and representatives, neither assume nor accept any
responsibility for any injury or danger which may result from exposure
to X-radiation. Furthermore, TOSHIBA CORPORATION does not accept any
responsibility for over-exposure of patients or personnel to the
X-radiation generated by this equipment due to poor operating
techniques or procedures. Also, no responsibility will be assumed for
any machine that has not been properly serviced and maintained in
accordance with the manufacturer’s technical manual or which has been
modified or tampered with in any way.

2.3 Radiation Safety

(1) Radiation protection

Since effects harmful to the health may be experienced by anyone

exposed to an excessive amount of X-radiation, the greatest
consideration should be given to protection against the direct
primary beam from the X-ray tube. Some of these effects are
cumulative and may extend over a period of months or years. The best
safety rules for X-ray protection is to stay out of the primary beam
at all times.

Any object in the path of the primary beam produces a secondary or

scattered radiation. The intensity of this scattered radiation
depends upon the type and amount of the primary beam and the atomic
number of the objects or tissues struck by the primary beam. This
radiation may actually be of greater intensity than the image-forming
radiation reaching the film.

Since this radiation i s as potenti ally dangerous a s the primary beam

radia tion, protective meas ures mus t be taken to sa fegua rd against it.

These protective measures may be carried out with lead shielding

devices. Items such as movable lead screens and lead-impregnated
rubber gloves and aprons can be used to minimize possible dangerous
exposures . It is imperative that these devices have a lead thickness
of a least 0.25 mm or the equivalent; they should be used by those
persons exposed to radiation fields of 12.9 x 10-7C/(kg=h) {5mR/h) or
more. During servicing or while operating this equipment a person’s
unprotected hands, wrists, arms, or other parts of the body should
never be exposed to the primary X-ray beam.

(2) Monitoring of personnel

Monitoring of personnel provides a valuable crosscheck of the

adequacy of radiation safety. It can aid in revealing inadequate or
improper radiation protection practices, and potentially serious
radiation exposure situations.

Adequate protection should be confirmed by measurement in rads. This

measurement should be taken to determine that the X-ray radiation at
any location does not exceed the accepted tolerance dose. A less
accurate, but frequently used, means of confirming this protection is
to place unexposed film at several strategic locations for a given
period prior to film development. The use of fluorescent screens,
after the eyes have become accommodated to the darkenss, may also aid
in locating inadequate protect ion areas.

Another common method of radiation monitoring is the use of film

badges. These devices consist of an X-ray sensitive film inserted
into a badge which incorporates metal filters of varying degrees of
X-ray transparency . Even though this device can only measure the
radiation reaching the particular area of the body it is worn on, it
does furnish a clue to the amount of radiation that is being
received.

All these measures are meaningless unless the rules of safety

regarding X-ray protect ion are known and are rigidly followed.

Refer to the following recommendations for specific safety

requirements.

(3) Recommendations

It is vitally important that everyone associated with X-ray work

become fully acquainted with the recommendations of the National
Bureau of Standards, the National Council on Radiation Protection,
and the International Committee on Radiation Protection. The control
of diagnostic medical X-ray equipment varies in detail from state to
state; however, in general, the recommendations of the National
Council on Radiation Protection based on the other authorities, are
recommendations in this manual. However, prior to operation, all
personnel qualified and authorized to operate this apparatus should
become familiar with and, where pertinent, conform to the established
recommendations contained in the documents provided by the
aforementioned authorities. The current sources of information are
listed for reference.

(5) Radiographic tube current adjustment

For the radiographic tube current adjustment, Mode 1 is used to

ad just each adjustment point, and Mode 2 is used to adjust the tube
current (MA) for each line. The radiographic tube current
adjustment can be facilitated by first adjusting 60 kV in Mode 2
and then adjusting 40 kV, 90 kV and 120 kV in Mode 1.

Mode 2 adjustment is the same as Mode 1, except that this
adjustment should be made with the R.kV tube voltage set to 60 kV.
When the X-ray tube for mammography is used, the tube current
adjustment in Mode 2 should be done at 25kV.

(6) Preflash level adjustment (PRF): Mode 5

The preflash level should be adjusted only when the tube current
does not rise within the specified time in (5) <6>.
Preflash is intended to increase the X-ray tube filament rise rate.

For this unit, the preflash time is fixed and the amount of
preflash can be obtained by multiplying the amount of main heating
by the preflash factor.
Therefore, the preflash level is adjusted by changing the preflash
factor.

The preflash factor curve is generated by preflash factors at three

points. The three points are the maximum, minimum and middle
points of the filament current on the X-ray tube current
characteristics curve.

(This is because it is not possible to distinguish data change
from data breakdown. > In such cases, recover by using the
above procedure. After recovery, data adjusted prior to
turning off the power supply are all effective.

Note: The recovery routine is simply to regenerate the error

check code, but not to repair the destroyed data.
Therefore, it is necessary to check the data after
recovery.
If the check shows that the data are changed, correct it
in Mode 1, 2 or 4. If data have been completely
destroyed, it is necessary to reset the tube. In this
case, the setting must start with the setting of the
high-voltage cable length.

<l> Stored data check

The stored data is checked by heat data when the power supply
is turned on. Data is checked in each tube and each focus (for
data blocks- Tube 1 LF, Tube 1 SF . . . Tube 3 SF). If an
attempt is made to use the data block in which an error has
been detected, an alarm (intermittent beeping sound) and an
error message will be generated. To recover from this state,
execute recovery procedure (9) from a data error.

<2> Set condition check

If the set tube voltage becomes greater than 150 kV or the tube
current is not set correctly, an alarm (intermittent beeping
sound) will be generated. If the tube voltage or the tube
current is set correctly, the alarm will be removed.

<3> Maximum filament current check

The heating output data is set to a value smaller than the
maximum filament current to prevent the X-ray tube filament
from breaking down. If the heating data exceeds the maximum
filament current value when the READY switch is pressed, the
heating level will be set to the preheating level and an alarm
(intermittent beeping sound) and an error message will be
generated.

<4> Reset Mode 0 by tilting the S/R switch and check the data. If
the power supply is turned off in the adjustment mode during
tube current adjustment, data is judged to have be destroyed
when the power supply is turned on again, and the alarm sounds.
(This is because it is not possible to distinguish data change
from data breakdown.) In such cases, recover by using the
above procedure. After recovery, data adjusted prior to
turning off the power supply are all effective.

Note: The recovery routine is simply to regenerate the error

check code, but not to repair the destroyed data.
Therefore, it is necessary to check the data after
recovery.
If the check shows that the data are changed, correct it
in Mode 1, 2 or 4. If data have been completely
destroyed, it is necessary to reset the tube. In this
case, the setting must start with the setting of the tube
code.

(10) Alarm

<l> Stored data check

The stored data is checked by heat data when the power supply
is turned on. Data is checked in each tube and each focus (for
data blocks- Tube 1 LF, Tube 1 SF . . . Tube 3 SF). If an
attempt is made to use the data block in which an error has
been detected, an alarm (intermittent beeping sound) and an
error message will be generated. To recover from this state,
execute recovery procedure (9) from a data error.

<2> Set condition check

If the set tube voltage becomes greater than 150kV or the tube
current is not set correctly, an alarm (intermittent beeping
sound) will be generated. If the tube voltage or the tube
current is set correctly, the alarm will be removed.

<3> Maximum filament current check

The heating output data is set to a value smaller than the
maximum filament current to prevent the X-ray tube filament
from breaking down. If the heating data exceeds the maximum
filament current value when the READY switch is pressed, the
heating level will be set to the preheating level and an alarm
(intermittent beeping sound) and an error message will be
generated.

(2) Tube volt age adjustment

Perform tube voltage adjustments for each tube current setting.

Although tube voltatges, 30 kV, 40 kV, 60 kV, 90 kV, 120 kV and 150
kV, are to be adjusted in principle, any voltage between tube
voltage sections (see Note 2) can be adjusted.
If the tube current value differs greatly from the value preset by
means of the operation panel, the tube voltage cannot be adjusted.
In such cases, therefore, the tube current adjustment should also
be made along with the tube voltage adjustment.
The delay time of the tube voltmeter should be 20 msec.

[Adjustment procedure]

<li Determine how many kV should be increased or decreased from the

measured tube voltage value in order to put the tube voltage
within the tolerance.

<2> Look at the display of 7--segment LED on the INV-2 PWB. This is
tube voltage shift data and stored into the RAM. If an
increase or decrease is perfomed around this numeric value, the
tube voltage will also be increased or decreased. One step
corresponds to about 2 kV. Thus, determine a value to be
written anew.

<3> Ad just SW&3 (rotary switch) on the INV-2 PWB to the value
determined in <2>, then press SW3. Consequently, the RAM is
rewritten. Check that the display of 7-segment LED has changed
to this value.

<4> Generate X-rays again and measure the tube voltage. If the
tube voltage is not found within the tolerance, repeat the
above from Item (1).

and 120kV points.
For the operation switches and adjustment modes, refer to 5.2.2 (1).
The heating data after adjustment should be recorded as shown in table
11. in APPENDIX 01.

(1) Select SPOT (T u b e 1) via the operation panel of the X-ray control
unit.

(2) Set Mode 4 with the mode selector switch.

(3) Set the F.kV and F.mA values to be adjusted with the spot operation
part of the conventional R/F table or the operation part of F-unit.
Combinations:

F.mA: 05, 1, 2, 3, 4mA

(4) Correct the data with yA (increase) and ,& (decrease)

cl Cl

switches (Note 1) by generating X-rays under individual set

conditions in order to ad just the fluoroscopic tube current.

(5) When the adjustment is completed, reset Mode 0 by pressing the S/R
switch.

Note 1: When the [z] or [z] switch is used, the value can be

increased or decreased ten times as compared to when the

switch is used, respectively.

5.4.3 Fluoroscopic tube voltage adjustment

If the X-ray tube current is over, it may not be possible to obtain the
correct tube voltage. In this case the tube current must be adjusted.
Operation (1) below is the main adjustment procedure and operation (2)
is the supplementary adjustment procedure.

(1) VR6 adjustment (VR6 on INV-1 PWB)

Fine-adjust VR6 on the INV-1 PWB so that the measured value of the
tube voltmeter becomes 90kV+lkV under the conditions of 90kV and
1mA. LED4 should indicate sT8” in the fluoroscopic mode.
By manually setting all mA and kV values, check that they are
within 7% of the kV accurate value.

(2) If the tube voltage accuracy is not yet within 7% after adjustment
(1) above, use SW2 and SW3 on the INV-2 PWB as in the case with the
radiographic tube voltage adjustment. This adjustment, however, is
possible only in the fluoroscopic mode. When this mode is turned
off, the radiographic tube voltage adjustment is possible.
In addition this adjustment is performed for each voltage section
shown below at 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 4mA respectively.

1. General

The fundamental idea, which determines how the combination of technique

factors for the test are selecte d, is to select a peak tube potential
(low, middle and high kV) and the product of tube current and exposure
time (approximately 5 mAs and 30 mAs).

During a series of 10 radiation exposure measurements, all variable

controls for technique factors are adjusted to alternate settings and
reset to the test setting after each measurement.

APPENDIX 07 TEST METHOD OF AUTOMATIC EXPOSURE MINIMUM EXPOSURE TIME

A. Objective

When the X-ray tube potential is equal to or greater than 50kV, the minimum
exposure time for field emission equipment rated for pulsed operation shall
be equal to or less than a time interval equivalent to two pulses, and the
minimum exposure time for all other equipment shall be equal to or less
than l/60 second or a time interval required to deliver SmAs, whichever is
greater (See 102.31(a)(3)(ii)).

B. Test method

(1) Set the X- ray apparatus and test instruments according to Fig. 2.

(2) Turn on the AEC selector switch.

(3) Set the tube voltage for 90kV, the tube current for lOOmA and the film
density regulator for “0” position.

(4) Set the acrylic phantom (thickness : 5cm) in front of the detector.

(5) Perform an exposure and observe the actual exposure time.

In the case of the detector with multiple detecting fields, test should
be taken to each combination of detecting fields. For example, test
should be done under 7 conditions (23 - 1 = 7) for the detector with 3
fields.

(6) Confirm that the exposure time is within the rejection limits.

Measured time on the exposure time counter should be equal to or less

than l/120 second.
