Abstract :
This paper introduces computerized simulation to find the configuration of the focal spot of radiology systems in different locations of the X-ray field. Results of simulations were compared to tests made in different radiology units. Comparison between simulated and experimental data were in good agreement, therefore confirming that the proposed simulation model is appropriate
