CLEAR-Pb Filters improve Image Quality and Reduce Patient Exposure

CLEAR-Pb Filters improve Image Quality and Reduce Patient Exposure. CLEAR-Pb Compensation Filters eliminate the problems inherent in imaging a wide range of densities on one radiograph. They replace the bulky, heavy aluminum filters that block the collimator light field.

In addition, CLEAR-Pb Filters are only one-fifth as heavy as aluminum filters. They eliminate the use of gradient-speed intensifying screens. CLEAR-Pb Filters are made of light weight plastic that is 30 percent lead by weight. A unique Quick-Stik magnetic mounting system plus a filter holder that slides into the collimator tray assure that the filter is held firmly in place. The magnetic mounting system also permits instant repositioning as the area and/or degree of filter coverage changes.

By compensating for the differences in body thickness, CLEAR-Pb Filters reduce over-exposure of both the film and the patient. Yet the filters maintain optimum image quality and provide better diagnostic detail. Because CLEAR-Pb Filters allow radiation exposure where the exposure is not needed, in some studies patient doses can be reduced by a factor of 100.
