Abstract:
A method for operating a clinical XRAY-based apparatus provided with user interface means, by initiating said apparatus and entering a sequence of operational parameter values for as based thereon executing an XRAY irradiation process;said method being characterized by comprising the following steps: during said entering dynamically ascertaining an execution feasibility level of said process in view of an anticipated physical or other quantitative effect on one or more critical elements of said apparatus; upon detecting an insufficient feasibility level figuring out one or more parameter values already entered that have a preponderantly negative effect on said feasibility level, and allowing a user-initiated amendment of their parameter value or values, until raising said feasibility level to sufficient; and otherwise continuing said entering until completing said sequence of operational value parameters as preliminary to executing said XRAY irradiation process.
