Clinical and Service Value

The OPTIMA 220 Toshiba X-Ray Tube offers significant clinical value by ensuring high-quality imaging, which is essential for accurate patient assessments. Its rapid electron production capability enhances workflow efficiency, allowing healthcare providers to respond quickly to patient needs, particularly in urgent care situations. The compatibility with multiple GE Healthcare models also facilitates seamless integration into existing radiology departments, maximizing the utility of current equipment.

From a service perspective, the OPTIMA 220 is designed with safety and maintenance in mind. The inclusion of a Certificate of Conformance (CoC) and a technical data sheet with each unit ensures that procurement teams can verify compliance with safety standards. This focus on safety minimizes the risk of radiation exposure, thereby protecting both patients and staff. Furthermore, the tube's robust design reduces the likelihood of mechanical failure, contributing to lower maintenance costs and enhancing overall reliability in clinical practice.

Additional notes

The Optima 220 Toshiba X-Ray Tube is applicable to the X-Ray tube for mobile radiography products. The tube selected for this product family is the E7894X general radiography tube manufactured by Toshiba or Canon. The systems work on the principle where high velocity electrons, when interacted with a patient’s body, their kinetic energy is converted into electromagnetic radiation. An X-Ray tube is the component that produces the X-Rays. It contains an anode and a cathode and a stream of electrons is produced by this X-Ray tube. They are accelerated to very high velocities by an external high voltage power supply, and it’s collided with the target anode in the tube. A beam is then formed and is focused on the patient and X-Rays emerging from the patient carry the image information which can then be stored on X-Ray film. The X-Ray tube is considered Critical to Safety for protection from radiation (leakage radiation), expelled parts (in an event of target failure/rupture), the bolts’ torque for mounting the stainless collimator mating flange. Technical data sheet, Certificate of Conformance (CoC) need to be Supplied with Each Unit.
