The QUART nonius is incredibly flexible: it it suitable for digital as well as conventional x-ray modalities. In any case, its precision is an absolute strong point – as it achieves a resolution in the so-called nonius range of 0.1 mm.
The nonius software to operate the device is available as single or multi-user on-premise installation.
Digitisation in x-ray technology makes traditional screen-films less available. Originally, they were used for checks on x-ray beam properties. Today, the QUART nonius performs the same task. And it provides even more substantial features.
The QUART nonius can be used to verify if the light visor matches the actual x-ray field. In addition, the nonius provides the option to assess the position and width as well as the dose profile of fanned x-ray beams. For that purpose, it features markings to line-up the light field or positioning lasers.
Recent studies have proven that QUART nonius can also be used for field measurement in radiation therapy applications.*
Mode of Operation
Operating the QUART nonius is easy and straight-forward:
1. Connect the device via USB to a Laptop or Tablet PC (Windows OS required).
2. Position the head unit at the respective position.
3. Use light field or a reference point for alignment.
4. Trigger the QA/QC exposure.
5. Immediately evaluate the results
