The X-RAD
The X-RAD 320 is a self-contained X-ray system for delivering a precise radiation dosage to specimens in a biological or small animal research laboratory. The shielded cabinet includes an Adjustable Specimen Shelf, Sample Viewing Window and Beam Hardening Filter Holder.
The TouchRAD Control Panel is a multi-user, password protected touch screen interface with a transportable database that can track individual system usage. Passwords, programmed exposure settings, and database management are controlled by a super-user. The X-ray tube is used specifically for radiation therapy having a highly homogenous beam.
