CLEAR-Pb Compensation Filters eliminate the problems inherent in imaging a wide range of densities on one radiograph. Because they are far superior, they replace the bulky, heavy aluminum filters that block the collimator light field. In addition, CLEAR-Pb filters are only one-fifth as heavy as aluminum filters. And, they eliminate the use of gradient-speed intensifying screens. CLEAR-Pb filters are made of lightweight plastic that is 30% lead by weight. A unique “quick-stik magnetic mounting system plus a filter holder that slides into the collimator tray ensure that the filter is held firmly in place. It also permits instant repositioning as the area and/or degree of filter coverage changes. The 57-4 Series CLEAR-Pb Compensation Filters provide the following benefits:
- Improve image quality
- Filters are 30% lead by weight
- Reduce the need for multiple exposures
- Ensure a more uniform image density
- Reduce patient exposure by selectively attenuating the x-ray beam
- Lightweight, easy to use
- Mounts to any collimator
- Collimator light field is never blocked
