Fujifilm is making available in the U.S. its 24x30cm (9″ x 12″) cesium iodide flat-panel digital radiography (DR) detector.
The unit will work with legacy X-ray systems that accept cartridges this size, while offering the convenience of a light (6 pound) device and wireless connectivity for easy positioning for all kinds of exams. The company claims this is the world’s lightest detector of this type and size.
The 24x30cm, wireless FDR D-EVO™ flat panel detector combines the exceptional dose efficiency benefits of Fujifilm’s Patented Irradiation Side Sampling (ISS) technology with image performance of Cesium Iodide. The innovative ISS technology is designed to improve detective quantum efficiency (DQE) by reducing the distance for light signals to reach the sensing electronics. By reducing scatter and blur, it produces ultra-sharp detail even at very low X-ray exposure. As a result, the FDR D-EVO™ 24 x30cm Cesium detector achieves as much as 20% higher DQE performance compared to conventional detectors, enabling potential for lower patient dose and enhancing diagnostic confidence for the radiologist.
