The Introduction of CT X-ray Tube

The CT X-ray tube is the core imaging carrier of all CT scanners, which converts electric energy into X-ray to penetrate human tissues and generate tomographic images for doctors to complete clinical diagnosis. Affected by high voltage, high heat and long-time scanning load, X-ray tubes belong to high-loss core consumables, with common faults such as anode ablation, filament burnout, heat dissipation failure and internal high-voltage arcing. Once damaged, the CT equipment will stop running directly, affecting the daily diagnosis work of radiology departments.

CT X-ray tubes are classified according to equipment grades and brands, including dual-source high-end CT tubes, 64/128-slice clinical conventional tubes, 16-slice basic hospital tubes and mobile intraoperative CT tubes, corresponding to Siemens SOMATOM series, GE Revolution series, Philips Brilliance series and Toshiba Aquilion series respectively. Different models have strict matching requirements, and mismatched tubes will lead to unclear imaging and potential safety hazards.

Shanghai Maiger has set up a special storage area for high-value CT core parts, with a large number of spot X-ray tubes covering all mainstream CT models. Equipped with 50 sets of complete machine testing equipment, the company simulates long-term clinical scanning environment for each X-ray tube to conduct full performance inspection, eliminating hidden dangers such as unstable radiation output and insufficient heat resistance. Two product lines are provided: genuine original tubes and certified compatible tubes, to meet the procurement budget demands of tertiary hospitals, grassroots medical institutions and independent maintenance companies.

Supported by a standardized warehouse of over 10,000 square meters, Maiger realizes fast sorting and delivery of X-ray tubes. Meanwhile, the company forms a complete service chain integrating spare parts supply, tube replacement calibration, high-voltage circuit overhaul and remote technical guidance, providing comprehensive CT core component supporting solutions for global medical imaging maintenance customers.
