Claims19
An X-ray system, comprising:
- a radiation source;
- a central control device;
- and
- a mobile solid object detector to communicate with the control device via a wireless communication link, the mobile solid object detector including a signaling unit to indicate an existing association with the central control unit.
A method using an X-ray system including a radiation source, a central control device and a mobile solid object detector to communicate with the central control device via a wireless communication link, the method comprising:
- receiving, from the central control device, an activation signal at the mobile solid object detector;
- and
- indicating, at the mobile solid object detector via a signaling unit, an existing association between the mobile solid object detector and the central control device.
An X-ray system, comprising:
- means for radiating x-rays;
- means for receiving, from a central controller, an activation signal at a mobile detector;
- and
- means for indicating, at the mobile detector, an existing association between the mobile detector and the central controller.
