Dose Area Product Measuring System VacuDAP

VacuDAP systems - patient safety by Dose Area Product monitoring

The European Guideline 97/43/EURATOM requires the determination of the patient dose in X-ray applications especially with children and when using higher doses. The VacuDAP system for automatic measuring of the dose area product complies fully with this requirement. (IEC 60580)

The modular VacuDAP dose area product measuring system offers various ionization chambers and configurations for a wide range of X-ray equipment. The VacuDAP measuring system is used to measure the Dose Area Product (DAP). This value is most suitable to indicate the patient dose in X-ray diagnostics.

The transparent ionization chambers fit easily into the accessory rails at the collimator. Adapted circular ionization chambers are used for complete integration into C-arm machines. All devices are equipped with a serial interface for transfer data files to a printer or a PC. Different printer, adaptor and PC software is available as an accessory.

Air Kerma- / Dosisflächenprodukt Messystem - VacuDAP duo

VacuDAP systems - patient safety by Dose Area Product and Air kerma monitoring

The system VacuDAP duo allows to determine Dose Area Product, Dose Area Product Rate, Air Kerma, Air Kerma Rate and irradiation time.

So the system fully complies with international regulations for Patient Dosimetry in radiography and fluoroscopy systems (IEC 60601-2-54, IEC 60601-2-43, 21 CFR 1020.32, IEC 60580).

 

Dose Area Product (DAP) meter VacuDAP

VacuDAP standard / fluoro / twin

The single-line Display unit is added to the measuring chamber to provide the complete system VacuDAP standard. The display unit enables to change settings and parameters to adjust the measuring chamber to the measuring conditions. A printer can be connected at the serial interface (RS232) at the Display unit. Also data transfer into a RIS System can be realised by this interface.

VacuDAP fluoro

Dose Area Product meters used for fluoroscopic X-ray units can be equipped with a double-line display that indicates dose area product and dose area product rate simultaneously. Further functionality corresponds to display standard.

VacuDAP twin

The two-channel measuring system VacuDAP twin can be used for radiographic units with two X-ray tubes. Both measured values are indicated independently. Further functionality corresponds to display standard.
