is a professional acquisition software for X-ray images

from flat panel systems (DR) and CR units (computed radiography with imaging

plates) by any manufacturer. In addition, the software controls X-ray generators

and X-ray units of various manufacturers, providing a smooth and systematic

workflow. A simple and user friendly GUI (graphical user interface) operated

by touchscreen or mouse completes the system.

The professional image processing can be adapted to

individual user needs and offers outstanding image quality in human and

veterinary medicine. It has been specially developed to enable organ specific

optimisation, guaranteeing the highest quality X-ray images.

Many helpful integrated functions such as the radiographic positioning guide

and intuitive operation simplify daily routine tasks greatly.

In addition, allows integration with existing patient

management systems. The integrated full viewer even allows the

user to diagnose X-ray images within the acquisition software. Therefore, the

system can also be applied as fully-fledged diagnostic workstation with the

option to upgrade to a PACS(Picture Archiving and Communication System).

forms the core of a direct digital X-ray unit, whether it

is a retrofit system to upgrade existing X-ray units, a complete new unit including

generator control, or a portable suitcase solution for mobile X-ray generators.

Varying X-ray doses

Example of a series of X-ray images taken with varying X-ray doses. The

image processing software allows the user to apply a strongly

reduced radiation dose while the image quality remains virtually the same. This

is of particular importance when taking X-rays of children. The foot images

depicted were taken with a Varian “PaxScan 4343R” (GadOx) flat panel.

is a generally open system. Its conception and

development was independent of hardware manufacturers.

Components from the following manufacturers have already been

integrated (We are continuously working on the integration of new

models and manufacturers):

Flat panel

Generator control

The generator screen displays all recommended values and

settings (kVp, mAs, focus etc.). These settings may be

adapted to the system used.

even to an Enterprise Multi Modality PACS. 5,000 installed workstations in

over 600 image management systems in over 40 countries (as of 10/2010)

prove that our customers are satisfied.

A single workstation system with installed software

An integrated prosthesis documentation module providespreoperative planning (optional).

The system enables fast and easy customisation of the operatinginterface for individual customer preferences.

The stitching module merges a number of separate digital X-rayimages into a single image.

Useful tools such as the configurable measuring magnifiermake diagnosis much easier.

A number of measuring tools, such us the HD measurement of dogsshown here, save the customer a lot of effort.

Comprehensive search tools enable the comparison of X-rayexaminations of one or more patients.
