Digital Radiography Panel

The 14 x 17 inch panel can now be used in the table buckey or the vertical wall stand, providing an all-digital performance.

The Toshiba America Medial Systems, Inc.'s (TAMS; Tustin, CA, USA) DR panel is for its Kalare radiographic and fluoroscopic (R&F) x-ray system. The Kalare, with the integrated DR panel, expands general R&F and interventional radiology capabilities to help clinicians perform more exams with ease, comfort, and speed.

"Providing an integrated DR panel on the Kalare allows imaging facilities to go completely filmless, which eliminates the time, cost, and storage issues associated with utilizing traditional film,” stated Don Volz, director, X-Ray Business Unit, TAMS. "That time savings and instant access to images offered with digital radiography can be significant for many facilities, allowing them to accommodate more patients without the cost or space requirements of adding a second room.”

The system reduces retakes and improves patient procedure times. Adding the DR panel to the system will provide 24-hour utilization. The Kalare system has been designed to accommodate the DR integration as a simple field upgrade.

Other features include an EPS-Plus digital imaging system--an all-digital processing system designed to lessen exam times and decrease the costs of film, handling, and storage associated with traditional R&F fluoroscopic procedures.
