Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT INFORMATION SEGMENT INFORMATION
        The Company has two reportable operating segments Medical and Industrial. The segments align the Company’s products and service offerings with customer use in medical and industrial markets and are consistent with how the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is also its CODM, evaluates the business for the allocation of resources. The CODM allocates resources to and evaluates the financial performance of each operating segment primarily based on revenues and gross margin. The operating and reportable segment structure provides alignment between business strategies and operating results.
Description of Segments
        The Medical segment designs, manufactures, sells and services X-ray imaging components for use in a range of applications, including radiographic and fluoroscopic imaging, mammography, computed tomography, radiation therapy and computer-aided detection. The Company provides a broad range of X-ray imaging components for Medical customers including X-ray tubes, digital flat panel detectors, generators, high voltage connectors, image-processing software and workstations, computer-aided diagnostic software, collimators, automatic exposure control devices, generators, ionization chambers and buckys. The Company’s X-ray imaging components are primarily sold to imaging system OEM customers that incorporate them into their medical diagnostic, radiation therapy, dental, veterinary and industrial imaging systems. The Company also sells its X-ray imaging components to independent service companies, distributors and directly to end-users for replacement purposes.
