Siemens Medical Solutions will introduce a mobile x-ray unit with an integrated computed radiography (CR) reader at next week's 2006 RSNA meeting in Chicago.
Mobilett XP CR includes an integrated monitor and image archiving capabilities, and is suited for mobile imaging tasks in the intensive care unit (ICU), neonatal and pediatric departments, and surgery wards, according to the Malvern, PA-based firm. Clinicians can perform basic image processing tasks such as brightness, contrast, and edge enhancement directly on the system, Siemens said.
The unit can use different imaging formats with different imaging cassettes, Siemens said. The integrated CR reader has a reading capacity of 60 cassettes per hour.
