I was going to ask in the other picture if the machine still may be workable?
But after seeing the rust and I suppose the corrosion underneath and inside I would think not.
second look, it looks like those dials and stuff on an old "Outter Limits" show.
The use of the fluoroscope was discontinued because of the high amount of radiation that it puts on the patient.
Actually, we still use flouroscopy in the hospital all the time. A major difference is that our modern flouroscopes tend to emit less radiation because you can use it for literally seconds at a time, instead of leaving it on.
Please tell me that dial really goes up to 11...
good eye Alicia
