Multimodality vendor Toshiba of Tustin, CA, will show two new work-in-progress systems in its Infinix family of angiography units.
Infinix VFi/BP/FD is a biplane multiaxis system featuring a floor-mounted five-axis positioner that enables excellent patient access, according to the company. The system utilizes two flat-panel detectors, a 12 x 16-inch panel and an 8-inch panel. It is designed for the neuro and vascular interventional procedures and supports advanced clinical applications like high-speed 3D digital subtraction angiography (DSA) or 3D digital angiography (DA) imaging.
The second system in the family, Infinix VFi/FD, will also be shown as a work-in-progress. It has a single floor-mounted multiaxis positioner with a 12 x 16-inch flat-panel detector with fast-spin 3D DSA to provide high-quality images, combined with a multitasking image processor and multimodality 3D image display station. Applications include diagnostic angiography as well as vascular and nonvascular interventional procedures.
Both products are works-in-progress and do not yet have regulatory clearances.
