Varex Imaging has launched a new digital radiography (DR) flat-panel detector, Lumen 4336W.
The new detector joins the company's Lumen 4343W detector as one of a new generation of DR panels from the firm that is designed to be more durable and convenient for customers and end-users.
Lumen 4336W has higher resistance to water ingress, with simplified construction of internal components to make the detector more robust and reliable. The panel also has an integrated inductive charger, enabling wireless charging in a bucky, table-top, or in a carrying case. This removes the need to remove the battery for charging, according to Varex.

(A, B) Paired anteroposterior (AP) chest radiograph and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) report shows lumbar spine (L1 through L4) areal bone mineral density (BMD). The DXA report was reformatted for anonymization and improved readability. The patient had low BMD (Z score ≤ −2.0). (C) Model (chest radiography [CXR]–BMD) output shows the predicted raw BMD and Z score in comparison with the DXA reference standard, together with interpretability analyses using Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and gradient-weighted class activation maps. The patient was classified as having low BMD, consistent with the reference standard.
