GE Healthcare Senographe DS Acquisition System
Revision 1 Operator Manual 5307907-3-S-1EN
Specifications
1-2 Maximum tolerance of displayed constants
kV and mAs:
• kV: ± 5%
• mAs: ± (7.6% +1.1 mAs)
Measurement Conditions:
• kVp:
Connect an HV voltage divider (Machlett Dynalizer IIIA; ratio 10 kV/1 V) in series with the x-ray tube
and measure the voltage with a multimeter (Fluke 45 or 87).
• mAs:
Connect an HV voltage divider (Machlett Dynalizer IIIA; ratio 10 kV/1 V) in series with the x-ray tube.
Connect a waveform analyzer (Tektronix 7854) to the output of the divider; the analyzer receives a
signal proportional to the voltage applied to the tube. The mAs values are given by:
mAs =
Where T1 is the time at which the high voltage reaches 75% of its maximum value, and T2 is the time
at which the high voltage returns to 75% of the maximum value.
Compression force and breast thickness:
• Compression Force: ± 10 newton
• Breast Thickness: ± 10 mm
