Abstract

The INNOVA 2000, an all-digital cardiovascular X-ray system with flat panel detector, is equipped with a monitoring function that makes it possible to track a patient's absorbed dose by displaying the realtime presumed absorbed dose. We verified this dose monitoring system and evaluated how it is affected by various parameters. We also compared the INNOVA 2000 to a conventional machine, the Advantx LC. The average absorbed dose of the INNOVA 2000 was 1,066 mGy, while that of the Adnantx LC was calculated to be 2,028 mGy. Dose reduction with the INNOVA 2000 was 76% at Low mode and 52% even at Normal mode. The INNOVA provides an advantage in lowering absorbed dose, even considering that it has a rectangular image intensifier (I. I.) versus the Advantx LC's round I. I. This comparison was made by cine and digital angiography.
