Agfa HealthCare has installed its DX-G computed radiography (CR) system for critical pediatric and neonatal radiography at Children's Mercy Hospitals and Clinics in Kansas City, MO.
Children's Mercy Hospital, a 335-bed facility, has reduced radiation dose by 57% using DX-G, compared to its previous CR system, according to Agfa.
DX-G combines features for radiation dose reduction and monitoring, such as DirectriX cesium bromide needle-based phosphor detectors and extended dose monitoring analysis.
