Pulse Oximeter is a tiny device that attaches to a body part, like a toe or an earlobe. It’s mostly used on a finger, and it’s sometimes used in a critical care setting such as emergency rooms or hospitals.
Mammography images are created by the process of x-rays passing through breast tissue and interacting with a digital detector. The anode in the x-ray tube used for mammography is made of molybdenum, or rhodium, rather than tungsten which is commonly used in general x-ray tubes. For more information about x-ray formation see the previous section (X-rays).
