SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A HIGH VOLTAGE GENERATOR OF AN INTERVENTIONAL IMAGING SYSTEM
Systems and methods for controlling a high voltage generator of an interventional imaging system are provided herein. In one example, a method for an interventional imaging system includes generating a plurality of X-ray pulses with an X-ray tube of the interventional imaging system, each X-ray pulse generated by supplying voltage to the X-ray tube from a high voltage generator and opening a gridding electrode of the X-ray tube, and turning off the high voltage generator between each X-ray pulse. In some examples, the high voltage generator may be reactivated prior to each X-ray pulse according to a command signal that anticipates an actual start time of each X-ray pulse.
