Fluoroscopy Spot Imaging - Video Lesson

Selected radiographic exposures are required to spot down. On suspected anatomy. Let's see how this time tested feature of fluoroscopy works and why it's needed. So what is a spot image? It's a radiographic exposure of selected anatomy that was first visualized during fluoroscopy. Spot filming is a static image process to freeze the patient's internal dynamic motion and anatomy. It uses higher radiographic exposure techniques to obtain better image quality than were obtained by fluoroscopy. Because of the higher milli amperages, motion distortion is less likely due to the very short exposure times. Exposures are automatically terminated using a type of automatic
