The present disclosure is related to an imaging system. The imaging system may include at least one array radiation source and a detector. Each of the at least one array radiation source may include a plurality of point radiation sources. The at least one array radiation source may be configured to emit at least one radiation beam. The detector may be configured to detect at least part of the at least one radiation beam.

A radiation shield assembly includes a shield configured to block radiation and a rail assembly configured to position the shield in between the radiation table and a radiation source. The shield is movable between a retracted position and an extended position along a length of the rail assembly. In the extended position, the shield extends along a portion of a radiation table and blocks radiation from the radiation source to the portion of the radiation table. In the retracted position, the shield exposes at least some of the portion of the radiation table to the radiation.

A personal radiation protective device comprising a radiation barrier and an outer covering that covers the radiation barrier; the outer cover made from a material herein one or more edges of the outer covering are welded together.

A radiation shield assembly is described, configured to block radiation emanating from a radiation source from reaching a user. Two shields are supported by a support arm, and are configured to rotate relative to one another. This allows the shield to be easily configured and reconfigured as necessary to safely visualize various parts of a patient's body via radiography.

An X-ray shielding unit 19 includes a plurality of shielding slats, freely movable with an imaging system that is in place above a table, and each free end of the shielding slats extends toward the table and is the slats are arrayed in parallel along the long side of the table. A shielding switching element switches the X-ray shielding unit between a shielding state in which the X-ray exposure to the operator S is blocked and a releasing state. The shielding switching element includes a slat rotation mechanism rotating respective shielding slats on a short side axis of the table, and the slat rotation mechanism rotates the shielding slats during switching of the shielding state.

The invention is generally directed to a sterile surgical drape designed to provide a sterile barrier with a self-contained, expandable sterile pocket. The sterile surgical drape includes a pocket sized and shaped to accommodate the C-arm of an X-ray machine. The pocket spans the width of the operative site and includes an elastic band along a top edge to ensure that the pocket does not drop below the sterile field when not in use. In this way, the pocket is maintained around the C-arm and the sterile field is preserved during use. The surgical drape can optionally include an adhesive antimicrobial strip configured with an elongated length. The surgical drape can further optionally include one or more pouches sized and shaped to retain surgical instruments or tools.

Methods for setting up, maintaining and operating a radiopharmaceutical infusion system, that includes a radioisotope generator, are facilitated by a computer of the system. The computer may include pre-programmed instructions and a computer interface, for interaction with a user of the system, for example, in order to track contained volumes of eluant and/or eluate, and/or to track time from completion of an elution performed by the system, and/or to calculate one or more system and/or injection parameters for quality control, and/or to perform purges of the system, and/or to facilitate diagnostic imaging.

A system for multi-mode breast x-ray imaging which comprises a compression arm assembly for compressing and immobilizing a breast for x-ray imaging, an x-ray tube assembly, and an x-ray image receptor is provided. The system is configured for a plurality of imaging protocols and modes.

An imaging capsule, including a radiation source, a collimator that provides a collimated beam from the radiation source, a detector configured to detect particles resulting from X-ray fluorescence and/or Compton backscattering in response to the collimated beam, a motor to rotate the collimator and detector around an axle to scan a partial or full inner circumference of a user's colon with radiation, wherein the motor comprises a segmented commutator that is fed with a power signal via brush contacts; and wherein the motor provides a pulsed output signal based on mechanical switching of the segmented commutator on the brush contacts, providing an indication of the rotation angle of the motor as a function of time.

The present disclosure is related to systems and methods for radiation dose management. The method includes obtaining scan information of a subject. The scan information includes a scan mode, a scan region of the subject, and a radiation dose of the subject. The method includes determining a record mode based on the scan mode. The method includes recording the scan region and the radiation dose based on the record mode.
