CPR - Close Proximity Radiography

During conventional (traditional) radiography the emission of radiation requires the evacuation of a wide area between the radiation source, the operators, and all people in the surrounding area.
The Close Proximity Radiography (CPR) system (also called Safe Radiography System, Small Area For Exposure Radiography, Small Controlled Area Radiography, and Safe Radiation System) reduces the radiation to much lower levels, consequently reducing evacuation areas.
