According to on embodiment, an inverter high voltage generator includes a DC power supply, an inverter, a high voltage converter, a discharge detector, a controller. The DC power supply generates a direct current. The inverter converts the direct current from the DC power supply to an alternating current by switching. The high voltage converter converts an AC output pulse from the inverter to a high voltage. The discharge detector detects an electric discharge that has occurred in an X-ray tube. The controller controls, upon detection of the discharge, switching of the inverter to change a pulse width or a frequency of the AC output pulse from the inverter so as to gradually increase a measured tube voltage value of the X-ray tube up to a target tube voltage value.

The present invention relates to a method and radiation monitoring device (10) comprising at least one radiation detector (111), a memory (112) and a controller (12), wherein said radiation detector is arranged to detect at least one type of radiation dose. The memory (112) comprises a number of memory positions configured to store data resulting from said detector (111) detection. The positions are configured to store accumulated measured dose values corresponding to consecutive real time intervals. The controller is configured to continuously compute mean radiation dose values for measured and stored radiation doses during the predetermined time period and for each computation, a resulting mean value is compared with a corresponding predetermined reference value and generate a signal corresponding to result of said comparison.

A medical imaging system includes a stationary gantry and a rotating gantry that rotates around an examination region about a z-axis. An air bearing rotatably couples the rotating gantry to the stationary gantry. A radiation source is affixed to the rotating gantry and rotates with the rotating gantry and emits radiation that traverses the examination region. A detector array is affixed to the rotating gantry on an opposite side of the examination region with respect to the radiation source and detects radiation traversing the examination region. A dynamic z-axis imbalance determination system determines an imbalance of the rotating gantry in the z-axis direction directly from the air bearing, and the determined imbalance is used to position a balance mass affixed to the rotating gantry in the z-axis direction, thereby balancing the rotating gantry along the z-axis.
