New High-Resolution Digital X-Ray Detectors Announced

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 29 Aug 2016
A major radiology imaging equipment provider has announced the availability of new 43 x 43 cm digital detectors intended for use in room-based X-Ray systems.

The fixed and wireless detectors are available for general and pediatric dose-sensitive applications, and for use with gadolinium (GOS), and cesium (CsI) scintillators.

Carestream Health (Rochester, NY, USA) developed the detectors, which are intended for use with their DRX-Evolution Plus, DRX-Ascend digital X-Ray systems, the DRX-Revolution mobile imaging system, and for the tabletop.

The detectors feature rapid imaging, higher Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE), a lower radiation dose, and adhere to the IPX Level 7 rating, and IEC standard 60529 for water resistance when submerged for up to 30 minutes in one meter of water. More...
The detectors are also lighter and have a thinner profile than previous versions, and feature bi-color LEDs for feedback on detector status, and a fast frame rate.

The detectors systems also feature a beam detect mode, intended for room retrofits that enables the use of the detector without a cable connection to the generator. Image capture begins automatically when the detector senses exposure to X-Rays.

Sarah Verna, Global Marketing Manager for X-Ray Solutions at Carestream Health, said, “We have modified the Buckys in our room-based systems to accept the larger-format DRX detectors. These detectors are ideal for chest X-rays, extremity exams and general radiography imaging studies and also can be used for bariatric patients.”
