Flat-panel digital detector developer dpiX of Palo Alto, CA, is opening a new manufacturing facility to meet the growing demand for sensors.
The new facility will be located in Colorado Springs, CO, and will employ about 125 people, including engineers and fab operators. The company said demand is coming not only from medical imaging, but also from other industries that are recognizing the benefits of converting from x-ray film and other fluoroscopic x-ray techniques.
dpiX has been producing amorphous silicon digital detectors for the medical market since 1993. Originally part of Xerox PARC, the company is now owned by a consortium of medical imaging vendors.
