Radiation- behind the scenes






















Step 1: (upper left) Kev climbs into his custom made "seat".

Step 2: (upper right) The alignment begins...The table adjusts in two axis. It can raise/lower to set for correct depth and it can move in/out. Adjustments left/right are made by the tech pushing/pulling on the “seat”. A red laser light (barely visible in pics) is used as an alignment guide for left/right and in/out adjustments. Real-time x-rays are used for depth alignment. There is a bank of monitors on the wall used for visual displays. These settings are saved.

Step 3: (lower left) The emitter rotates.

Step 4: (lower left) Depth settings are now made for the underneath zapping operation. The program is “run” with a 15 second delay – enough time for everyone (except Kev) to evacuate the room through a 3-foot thick door. The techs monitor everything from a different room with computer displays.
