Summary
A large-sized image intensifier-TV-fluorographic system in combination with 100 mm sheet-film camera was evaluated for use in neuroradiologic practice. The image intensifier tube had new features such as a large input screen diameter, metal input screen cover and fiber optics on the output screen. The system was evaluated both technically and clinically. With some modifications, the tested system can be recommended for use in neuroangiography provided that it is supplemented by facilities for fullsize or magnification technique.
