Thinnest, Lightest Detector Now Available

FDA clears Fujifilms FDR D-EVO, providing facilities with smart transition to DR

Stamford, CT. - July 20, 2010 - Imaging facilities looking to convert existing analog x-ray rooms to digital can now benefit from the ease-of-use and exceptional image quality of the FDR D-EVO flat panel cassette from FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. Now FDA 510(k) cleared, the FDR D-EVO makes it more convenient to transition to DR with its seamless retrofit that enables facilities to insert the DR detector directly into the existing x-ray table or wall stand without modification.

FDR D-EVO is ideal for any clinical environment, from hospitals to imaging centers to private practices. At just six pounds, this 14 x 17 cassette-sized detector is the lightest-weight of its kind, and provides portability to address lateral or other cassette-based exams as needed; it can even be used as a complement in existing DR rooms such as for cross-table exams. This flexibility also makes the FDR D-EVO ideal for areas where immediate access to high quality x-ray images is crucial, like the operating room or emergency department.

With FDR D-EVO, everyone benefits from the smart and easy transition to DR, said Rob Fabrizio, Fujifilms senior marketing manager, Imaging Systems. Technologists appreciate the light-weight design, simplified workflow and speed of image acquisition; clinicians recognize its exceptional image quality; and patients benefit from a faster, more comfortable exam
