PerkinElmer has purchased digital radiography (DR) firm Dexela.
The acquisition of Dexela expands PerkinElmer's medical imaging portfolio in key areas, including surgery, dental CT, cardiology, mammography, and nondestructive testing, according to the company. Dexela develops complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) x-ray detection technologies and services, including hardware and software for low-dose x-ray imaging.
PerkinElmer customers will now be able to choose between two complementary x-ray detector technologies, the company said.
Dexela also offers a mammography workstation, DexView image processing software, 3D reconstruction engine software, and consulting and implementation services. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
