Abstract

We present the feasibility of digital Carbon Nanotube (CNT)-based X-ray source for the development of portable Chest Radiography X-ray system. The X-ray images of human chest phantom were taken at varying anode voltages and current. The result shows that the X-ray image taken at 100 kV 9 mAs was good enough with detailed visualization of rib bones and bronchi of phantom’s lungs.
