Abstract

The quality of continuous X-ray beam depends upon the half value layer which varies according to the geometric conditions, filtration thickness, and tube voltage. We compared the inverter type X-ray equipment with the conventional single phase 2 peak and the three phase 12 peak for the quality obtained by changes of the added filter thickness and the tube voltage. The quality of single phase 2 peak X-ray generator showed increase for the added filter and the tube volt-age. The half value layer is Increased the thicker the filter and the higher the kVp. The quality of the Inverter type and the three phase 12 peak in comparison with the single phase 2 peak X-ray generator is increased.
