Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An X-ray image pick-up method causes X-rays from an X-ray source to be irradiated on an object for picking up its image as passed through a filter capable of restricting any fluctuation in effective X-ray energy within +10%, and then the X-rays thus penetrated through the object to be picked up by an image pick-up means. Radiation dose with respect to patients as the object and eventually to doctors or X-ray operators is thereby minimized, while the image pick-up can be realized with a high resolution.

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 31, 1991 and granted June 15, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 31, 2011.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 31, 2013.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
