ATLANTA, March 1 — At the HIMSS conference, Carestream Health, Inc., displayed its CARESTREAM DRX-1 detector that forms the foundation for a highly productive family of DR products that includes: an affordable system to equip analog x-ray rooms with the latest DR technology; a fully automated DRX-Evolution suite that offers virtually unlimited patient positioning; and a work-in-progress DRX Mobile Retrofit Kit that integrates the DRX-1 detector into select Siemens and GE mobile x-ray systems to achieve more efficient imaging workflows.
Because the DRX-1 detector is both cassette-sized and wireless, it can be moved from one exam room to another, which delivers exceptional flexibility and cost-efficiency for healthcare providers. When the Retrofit Kit is available, facilities will be able to use the same detector in their mobile x-ray systems.
The DRX-1 enables facilities to quickly and affordably convert existing analog x-ray rooms from film- or CR-based radiography to the enhanced efficiency and image quality offered by DR technology. The DRX-1 detector is the same size as a 14 x 17 inch (35 x 43 cm) cassette, so it fits into existing Buckys and allows use of standard grids. Preview images are available in about six seconds and patient images can be transmitted to existing HIS/RIS or PACS systems over a secure wireless network.
