Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
TAXES ON (LOSS) INCOME TAXES ON (LOSS) INCOME
    For the three months ended December 29, 2023, the Company recognized income tax benefit of $0.2 million on $0.6 million of pre-tax loss. For the three months ended December 30, 2022, the Company recognized income tax expense of $2.2 million on $5.4 million of pre-tax income. The Company is unable to recognize a tax benefit for pre-tax book losses in certain foreign jurisdictions but has recognized tax expense for profitable foreign jurisdictions.
    The Company's tax expense for the three months ended December 29, 2023 decreased, primarily due to decreased pre-tax income in certain jurisdictions and losses in certain foreign jurisdictions for which no benefit can be recorded.
    The Company is maintaining its reinvestment assertion with respect to foreign earnings for the three months ended December 29, 2023, which is that all earnings prior to fiscal year 2018 are permanently reinvested for all countries, and that all earnings for Varex Imaging Sweden and Oy Varex Imaging Finland are also indefinitely reinvested in those countries, but post fiscal year 2017 earnings in all other countries are not permanently reinvested. Due to the level of earnings available for repatriation, the treaty benefits applicable to jurisdictions in which those earnings are located, and the now favorable United States tax treatment of repatriated foreign earnings, the amount of deferred tax liability recorded related to the potential repatriation is approximately $0.1 million. This estimated liability is for United States state income taxes and foreign withholding taxes that would apply if the foreign earnings were repatriated in the form of a dividend.
