RADsSpeedRADspeed overview "RADSPEED" with the X-ray radiography system which designates the chest and the fairing territory as main use, consists of the X-ray high vol- tage generator, X-ray tube support, X-ray radiography stand and X-ray radiography table. Servo tracking radiography and Servo tomography and the like it can choose many radiography technique systems with the addition of option. This operation guide is intended for complimenting each ‘Operation Manual’ of RAD- SPEED and concisely describes its basic operations. Prior to using this guide, make sure to carefully read all ‘Operation Manual’ booklets and fully understand them. Notation The following notation is used in this operation guide.
