In Lakeside Hall, booth #1617, Canon U.S.A. will showcase a wide array of solutions that can help practitioners deliver quality patient care through devices that offer convenience, mobility, and imaging quality, and can help practitioners establish efficient workflows:

Convenient Designs Offer Flexibility

Offering a highly versatile dual purpose imaging solution, the RadPRO1 D2-50RF Dynamic Digital RF Imaging System provides exceptional image quality for fluoroscopy and dynamic examinations. Depending on the image capture mode and size, the CXDI-50RF Dynamic/ Static Flat Panel Detector has the ability to take up to 30 frames per second (fps) for fluoroscopy imaging, while offering static multi-frame radiographic imaging at up to 15 fps.

Portable Solutions for Streamlined Examinations

For a streamlined approach to digital radiography, the RadPRO 40kW Digital Mobile System can be outfitted with a variety of Canon DR devices, including the CXDI-70C Wirless DR System. Weighing 7.5 pounds, the durable Canon CXDI-70C Wireless DR system is easy to handle and produces high-resolution images as a result of a pixel pitch of just 125 microns. In addition, the DR system incorporates a Cesium Iodide (CsI) scintillator, helping to reduce patient X-ray exposure. With the use of a custom tray (which is sold separately), the CXDI-80C Wireless DR System is compatible with most Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) beds, incubators and warmers without any modifications.



Superb Imaging Quality for Enhanced Patient Care

With high-quality image sensors, Canon Digital Radiography detectors provide excellent diagnostic images as a result of a pixel pitch of 125 microns, and the detectors with CsI scintillators result in minimal patient X-ray exposure. Ideal for various diagnostic imaging areas and radiology rooms, these Digital Radiography systems are exceptionally versatile, portable and easy to install.
