Digital X-ray Radiograph System To Optimize The Workflow

A new type of digital X-ray radiograph (DR) system provides fast, non-film X-ray photographic methods. It also help to improve the workflow efficiency in a variety of radiograph applications.

Canon CXDI-40EC DR system, belonged to Canon USA Co., Ltd. (Lake Success, NY, USA), expanded its product line of DR system. The system has LANMIT 8 (a wide range of new MIS sensors and thin-film transistor [TFT]), also equipped with a 17 x 17-inch large-scale imaging region for X-ray image. Regardless of image size, it is no need to adjust detector orientation. The new Canon DR system consists of amorphous silicon (a-Si) flat-panel detector and cesium iodide (CsI) scintillator, can achieve high-performance X-ray absorption and high signal to noise ratio.

Core of the CXDI-40EC DR system is the CsI scintillator with the Canon Amorphous Silicon (a-Si) flat-panel detector，which can produce 12-bit grayscale (4096 grayscale) of a clear diagnosis high-resolution images. This high-sensitivity detectors with 7.2 million pixels and each pixel is only 160 microns wide. This detector also has a broad dynamic range to obtain a good contrast and fine image details, while traditional film may have their inadequate or excessive exposure.

In order to be able to seamlessly transfer data to any of the DICOM hard copy output device or medical imaging archiving and communication system (PACS) for the diagnosis of interpretation, archiving, remote access to film and image printing, the system equip an Ethernet 10/100 Base T ports which is compatible with DICOM 3.0.

The system is also in line with the IHE (Medical Information System Integration) interoperability standards to help to ensure the network’s efficient integration. For example, the system can directly integrated with the IHE workflow plans. This seamless integration can transfer  instructions and patient information to Canon equipment from medical information system / radiology information system (HIS / RIS), and then directly back to the HIS / RIS, which aids patients and medical records management.
