  • Triode tube

    Within the realm of electron tubes, there exists a type known as a triode, which consists of three electrodes: an anode, a cathode, and a control electrode. It is worth noting that certain x-ray tubes also fall under the category of triodes.  

  • Transformer oil

    In the realm of large power transformers, there exists a practice of immersing the windings in a premium-grade insulating oil. This specialized oil serves the purpose of offering excellent insulation properties and reducing the risk of electrical sparkover.    

  • Transformer loss

    The ratio of power output delivered by an ideal transformer to the power output delivered by an actual transformer, given specific conditions, is a significant parameter to consider.  

  • Transformer law

    The relationship between the induced voltage in the secondary coil and the applied voltage in the primary coil can be expressed by the ratio of the number of turns in the secondary coil to the number of turns in the primary coil.  

  • Total filtration

    In the context of x-ray beams, the term “total filtration” encompasses the combined effect of both inherent filtration, inherent to the x-ray tube and its components, and added filtration, implemented intentionally. This cumulative filtration plays a crucial role in optimizing the quality and safety of the generated x-ray beam.  

  • Tomolex

    Introducing the Picker tomographic system with an integrated tubestand, a cutting-edge automated apparatus designed for horizontal tomography and radiography. This advanced device offers precise and efficient imaging capabilities in the realm of medical diagnostics.  

  • Tissue technique

    To obtain a radiograph specifically targeting tissue areas, a reduction of ten percent in the original kilovoltage is recommended, while keeping all other factors unchanged.  

  • Time-temperature developing manual

    For the majority of radiographic films, the universally recommended duration for development stands at three minutes, accompanied by a temperature of 68°F. It is worth noting that a deviation of one degree in temperature warrants an adjustment of 15 seconds, either an increase or decrease, in the development time.  

  • Time-temperature chart

    Let us delve into the realm of graphs, where we encounter a fascinating illustration depicting the correlation between the ideal duration for the development process and the corresponding temperature applied to an x-ray film.  

  • Time sharing

    In the realm of technical processes, there exists a methodology wherein a particular component or system carries out a consistent operation or function on multiple inputs. This approach typically involves a sequential switching mechanism, allowing the said component to cyclically engage with each input in succession.
