System Manual
With an existing CARD collimator, the two blades of the slot dia-
phragm are shown on the monitor off-center.
Setting the slot diaphragm display is performed with respect to
the visible front edge of the semitransparent slot diaphragm bla-
des. With an existing CARD collimator, the slot diaphragm blades
are displayed approx. 25 mm further to the outside after the set-
ting procedure. This ensures that, in the middle kV range, the dis-
played slot diaphragm blades mark the limit of the visible
shadowing in the fluoroscopic image more or less.
