Systems and methods presented herein provide for the testing and
reconfiguration of x-ray devices. In one embodiment, a test bed
effectuates testing of an acquired x-ray device to determine a cause of
the inoperability of the device. The x-ray device test bed may be
provided to test a plurality of x-ray devices and, therefore, readily
adaptable to such devices. The x-ray device test bed may include a mount
for an x-ray tube. A variable power supply may be coupled to the x-ray
tube to provide the requisite high-voltage electrical energy thereto. The
x-ray device test bed may also include a mount for an imaging module
(e.g., a "flat-panel sensor"). A processor may be coupled to the imaging
module to determine the operational characteristics thereof. If certain
x-ray components are deemed inoperable, the x-ray components may be
replaced such that the x-ray device may be reintroduced to a medical
industry segment.
