Design of X-ray Generator Simulator

X-ray machine systems are used to acquire X-ray images of internal human body parts. A C-arm is a type of X-ray machine system used to produce X-ray images of desired body parts. The creation of X-rays is essential to the development of X-ray images. An X-ray generator built within the C-arm system produces the X-rays. The Master Controller is the brain of C-arm systems, which monitors and controls all the components of the C-arm system. Communication between the Master Controller and the X-ray generator is required in order to regulate the various functionalities of the X-ray generator. Using an actual X-ray generator to test the C-arm system's performance can be expensive and time-consuming. Thus, it is necessary to create a simulator that may take the role of an X-ray generator. In this research, a novel method for creating an X-ray generator simulator that uses an Arduino board in place of the X-ray generator is discussed. The Arduino board is programmed to perform like an X-ray generator, and communication between the Arduino board and Master Controller is obtained to simulate the functionalities of an X-ray generator.
