The conventional (Single Phase) X-Ray and High Frequency X-Ray machines significantly differ in at least the following three aspects: Efficiencies Ease of use Quality of Outcome 1. Efficiency High frequency x-ray generators are better as compared to conventional single-phase generators due to efficient generation and control of high voltage power required to drive the x-ray tube. How so? X-ray units require a high voltage generator to supply necessary power in an x-ray tube. In order to control the speed at which the electrons travel and strike the anode, high-voltage/potential needs to be maintained between the cathode and the anode in the X-Ray tube . The higher the potential/ voltage (KV), higher the speed of electrons and, hence, higher the penetration power of X-radiation. (For more details on functioning of X-Ray machine please click here). AC power, supplies x-ray units with sinusoidal currents, resulting in ‘peaks and troughs’ leading to the X-Ray ...
