For linear-accelerator based systems where the bowtie can move in and out of the kV field, I have seen mis-alignment.

Yes years and years ago I detected high radiation and a slight image artifact. It turned out to be a thru and thru crack at the thinnest section of the bow tie filter. Regards B Davros On Tue, Apr 8, 2025 at 11: 40 AM Mark Supanich via Intl_dxmedphys_wd_osu_list
