Abstract
One or more example embodiments of the present invention relates to a dose control method for a mobile x-ray detector of a medical x-ray system, comprising generating a data packet having a time stamp of a clock of the mobile x-ray detector and a dose value; sending the data packet via a radio link from the mobile x-ray detector to an x-ray generator; receiving the data packet from the x-ray generator; comparing the time stamp with a clock of the x-ray generator and calculating a latency; and extrapolating an overall dose from the dose value, the time stamp and the latency.

A dose control method for a mobile x-ray detector of a medical x-ray system, the method comprising:
- generating a data packet having a time stamp of a clock of the mobile x-ray detector and a dose value;
- sending the data packet via a radio link from the mobile x-ray detector to an x-ray generator;
- receiving the data packet from the x-ray generator;
- comparing the time stamp with a clock of the x-ray generator and calculating a latency;
- and
- extrapolating an overall dose from the dose value, the time stamp and the latency.
