Other Medical Applications (Quantitative X-Ray)

Ultra-low noise, high dynamic range, high resolution, and high sensitivity performance

Dosimetry/Photometry

Photometry is usually defined as the measurement of light, and dosimetry is the measurement of x-ray energy or "dose."

The use of quantitative, scientific grade CCD or CMOS cameras in photometry is well known. In photometry, a quantitative imaging system precisely measures the amount of visible light incident on the detector. Applications of photometry may include astronomy, film digitization, and laser profiling. Dosimetry is the x-ray equivalent of photometry. In dosimetry, DALSA Life Sciences' quantitative x-ray imaging systems can be used to precisely (with 14-bit precision) measure the amount of x-rays incident on the detector. Applications of dosimetry include radiation therapy systems (portal imaging), and quality control of x-ray equipment. For further information on the use of DALSA Life Sciences systems for dosimetry, please contact us.

Radiation Treatment Planning

When planning radiation treatments, the amount of radiation is vital, as is the location to which it is delivered. Therefore, precise measurement is critical in the testing of radiation treatment equipment. Because of the high precision of our cameras, DALSA Life Sciences products can be very useful in testing and calibrating radiation treatment products in manufacturers' quality control processes.

In addition to the above, our the sensitivity and adaptability of our cameras have made them useful in a wide variety of other applications, including:

We continually strive to understand as much as we can about our customers' applications so we can add unique operational features to simplify operation and enhance imaging performance.

If our standard product offerings don't fit your application's needs, we have the capability and experience to develop customized solutions for specific OEM requirements.
