A wide variety of tube types are manfactured, each having unique characteristics. Generally, the type of tube selected is based on the need to balance resolution, integration (lag) and contrast

Brands of Camera Tubes

VIDICON
Vidicon is the most common type of camera tube. Generally a Vidicon offers good resolution, moderate lag and low image distortion. Manufactured in large quantities, medical grade Vidicons are selected from regular production runs to meet the medical X-ray market criteria. Selected medical grade Vidicons are identified with an "X" suffix. Vidicons are especially suited for general fluoroscopy procedures.

NEWVICON
Newvicon is a registered trademark of Matsushita. The tube was originally developed by Philips as an improved form of Vidicon. Newvicons are characterized by a high light sensitivity. The spectral response of the photoconductive target extends into the near infrared range.

PLUMBICON
The Plumbicon is a high performance tube, developed by Philips. It characteristically produces very high resolution and low lag. It is particularly suited to use with X-ray image intensifiers in digital subtraction and angiographic applications. Plumbicons typically have low output capacitance for a high signal-to-noise ratio.

CHALNICON
The Chalnicon is produced by Hamamatsu and features a high sensitivity over the range of visual spectrum. These tubes are typically more laggy than a Newvicon but provide higher resolution.

PASECON
Pasecon is a registered trademark of the Heimann division of EG&G. This is a highly sensitive camera tube with low dark current and excellent signal uniformity and resolution.

SATICON
Originally developed by Hitachi, this tube is licensed for manufacture by several firms, including Thomson and Heimann. The Saticon is a high quality, balanced tube providing high resolution and excellent contrast. It is slightly more laggy than a Plumbicon. It is well suited for the pick-up of quick moving images.

RESISTRON
The Resistron is a Vidicon type camera tube. It is suited for routine diagnostic procedures, since it provides high contrast with excellent resolution

PRIMICON
The Primicon is a high quality medical grade tube developed by Thomson. Primicon tubes have high resolution and good lag characteristics.
