Most X-ray generator had been used do rectifier type transformer high tension generator which is supplied in a clinical diagnosis. But it is difficult to miniaturize and become light weight. Also, because the ripple rate of tube voltage is high, X-ray generating efficiency is very low. Therefore, it is supplied gradually from abroad being developed high tension generator for inverter type X-ray generator which use semi-conductor switching element for electric power that have high speed switching ability to solved these problem. But, semi-conductor element of big capacity are used by X-ray tube's big consumption power and diffusion is difficult in the small size hospital because production cost is ascending by doing digital control through DSP and product price becomes expensive. Therefore, in this paper, design and manufactured CR type voltage divider for feedback control of tube voltage of high frequency resonance type inverter and high tension transformer for high frequency to apply economical diffusion type X-ray generator which have wide output voltage and load extent. It is Proved do X-ray generator and stability of X-ray tube's output characteristics through an experiment.

Most of X-ray generator had used rectifier type transformer with high tension generator which is supplied in a clinical diagnosis. Because the ripple rate of tube voltage is high, X-ray generating efficiency is very low. In these days, high tension generator for inverter type X-ray generator is being supplied from a broad which uses semi-conductor switching element for the electric power that have a high speed switching ability to solve these problem. But, semi-conductor element with large capacity is used with X-ray tube's large consumption power and diffusion is difficult in the small size hospital because production cost is going up by doing digital control through DSP. Therefore, this paper designed and manufactured CR type voltage divider for feedback control of tube voltage with high frequency resonance type inverter and for high tension transformer with high frequency. It was to make economical diffusion type X-ray generator which has wide output voltage and load extent. It was preyed that the X-ray generator had the stability of X-ray tube's output characteristics.

A diagnostic fluoroscopy X-ray system uses a 32kW or greater X-ray generator for obtaining real-time moving images and high-resolution images. Fluoroscopy X-ray systems have to use a high-capacity AC power source to perform long-time low-power fluoroscopy and short-time high-power spot exposure. In this paper, we propose a hybrid type X-ray generator for fluoroscopy X-ray system which can perform fluoroscopy and spot exposure with a low-capacity AC power source and an energy storage device. The characteristics of energy storage devices are compared and each energy storage device is modelled to equivalent circuit. And the characteristics of available energy are analyzed as a function of output voltage and power. A 32kW class hybrid X-ray generator with EDLC as an energy storage device for fluoroscopy X-ray system was constructed, and its validity was verified by means of simulations and experiments.

Medical X-ray has been brought many changes according to the rapid development of high technology. Especially, for high-voltage generator which is the most important in X-ray generation the traditional way is to use high-voltage electric transformers primarily. However, since it is large and heavy and the ripple rate of DC high-voltage applied to X-ray tube is too big, it has a disadvantage of low X-ray production efficiency. To solve these problems, the studies about high-voltage power supply are now proceeding. At present, the high-voltage generator that generates high-voltage by making high frequency using inverter control circuit consisting of semiconductor device is mainly used. High-voltage generator using inverter has advantages in the diagnosis using X-ray including high performance with short-term use, miniaturization of power supply and ripple reduction. In this study, the X-ray high-voltage device with inverter type using pulse width modulation scheme to the control of tube voltage and tube current was designed and produced. For performance evaluation of produced device, the control signal analysis, irradiation dose change and beam quality depending on the load variation of tube voltage and tube current were evaluated.

There are 4 types of equipment in diagnostic radiography. These are single phase, three phase, inverter type and condenser type X-ray generators. It is very confusing to make an adequate exposure factor and to know the usage of different type of X-ray generators. In this experiment, I explored a comparative study of outputs in 4 different type of X-ray units. I expect that this experiment could be helpful for manufacturer to make both the X-ray equipment better, In terms of Ideal exposure factors, thereby reducing the patient dose. Experimental results are as follow : 1) X-ray output The ratio of X-ray output of single, three phase and inverter type of X-ray generator was 1 : 1.6 : 2 without absorber and 1 : 2 : 2.6 with 20 mm aluminium absorber. 2) Beam quality The X-ray beam quality of single phase generator was proved to be softer than three phase and inverter type of generators by 0.4 mmAL and 0.55 mmAl HVL respectively. 3) Reproducibility Linearity of X-ray output Retroducibility of X-ray output met the regulation below CV 0.05 and linearity also met the regulation below 0.1 in 4 types of diagnostic X-ray generators. 4) The comparison of incident dose Three phase X-ray generator was 20% higher than two other X-ray generators in radiation dose to make same film density.

In the present study, we developed virtual reality education contents for radiation generator on radiation education field. The radiation generator was divided by module and even the X-ray exposure part was manufactured in detail for designing 3D models. The mechanical details of the X-ray exposure part, the function of adjusting field size of the X-ray, the function of moving the exposure part, and the demonstrating the principle of the X-ray tube were applied. For developing VR contents, the Unreal Engine was used. To evaluate the usefulness of virtual reality content, we used t-test by SPSS. The group used the simulator showed significantly higher levels of understanding of X-ray generation, X-ray irradiation unit composition, irradiation field size adjustment, irradiation unit position adjustment, and overall composition and function. We believe that this VR contents will be used well with radiation safe environment.

의료방사선의 관리에서 가장 중요한 사항은 진료의 적정성을 확보하면서 방사선위해를 최소화하는 것이다. 국제원자력기구는 진단방사선 분야의 선량 감소 방법에 대한 지침서를 만들어 환자피폭선량을 측정하여 각 국가에 사용하도록 권고하고 있다. 또한 국내에서도 우리나라의 실정에 맞게 각 촬영마다 환자 피폭 선량값을 연구하여 진단참고준위를 제시하였다.환자가 질병 때문에 방사선 진료를 받는 것은 방사선 때문에 일어날 수 있는 위해보다 그것으로 얻어지는 이익이 크기 때문이다. 병실 이동검사와 같이 자신의 질병과 무관하게 방사선에 노출되는 환자 및 보호자들의 피폭을 줄이기 위해서는 환자, 방사선사, 의사 및 의료기관의 노력이 가장 중요하다.이에 본 연구에서는 개선방안의 일환으로 MG로 병실의 이동 검사에 대한 문제점을 제시하고 이 문제점을 근거로 하여 산란선으로 예상되는 공간선량률을 분석하였다. MG에 자체 개발한 방어벽을 설치하여 방어벽 설치 전후의 공간선량률을 측정하여 그 감소율을 분석하였다. 최종적으로 이 자료들을 종합하여 MG에 방어벽을 부착하여 방사선사의 병실이동에 대한 부담감의 최소화, 병실 이동검사로 인한 방사선사, 환자 및 보호자를 방사선 노출로부터 보호하고, 검사로 인한 주위 환자 및 보호자의 불편을 최소화하는데 의의가 있다. 이와 같은 개선안에 대해 보다 효율적인 시행을 위하여 MG에 대한 새로운 법 제도가 마련되면, 향후 예상되는 비용, 인력, 고객만족도 및 더욱 더 안정적인 피폭감소방안이 정착될 것이라 사료된다.

의료용 X-선 고전압발생장치는 작동 시 높은 용량의 입력전원이 필요하며, 만약 전원환경이 적합하지 않을 경우 X-선 고전압발생장치를 사용하지 못하거나 불안정한 작동으로 인해 원활한 작동이 불가능해 진다. 전원환경에 따라 제품이 불안정 할 경우 환자 진료에 지장이 생길 수 있는 것을 감안하여 상용전원을 사용하지 않고 의료용 X-선 고전압발생장치를 작동 할 수 있는 전원장치를 배터리를 활용하도록 하였다. 전원회로를 설계한 후 시제품을 제작하여 본 논문에 제시된 방법에 따라 상용전원과 배터리 전원을 각각 비교하여 의료용 X-선 고전압발생장치가 입력전원방식에 따라 어떤 특성과 효율을 가지고 있는지 확인하였다.
