The remote-controlled table with digital flat panel detector
Apelem has launched the BACCARA dRF43 remote controlled table, featuring a fully digital two-in-one flat panel detector.
This combines high spatial resolution and fine detail for general radiographic and skeletal examinations and has the capacity to acquire fluoroscopic sequences with a rate of up to 30 frames per second for GI procedures and DSA applications, the manufacturer reports. ‘By drawing on our experience in the domain of flat panel detectors, first with the Paladio (world’s first full field flat panel detector with dynamic images) and more recently with the Rad Flat Panel detectors featured in our Da Vinci product range, Apelem has developed a full integration of each element included in the BACCARA dRF 43 system, which greatly reduces the number of steps required to obtain a successful procedure.
All the parameters on both the Magnum generator and the Baccara table are automatically set according to the appropriate examination programme selected from the RIS code.
The system provides real time fluoroscopy, up to 30fps; up to 18 fps in full field fluoroscopy (43 x 43cm); up to 12 fps in radiography; high QDE and extended dynamic (16 bits) detector. In addition, the Thales Pixium detector presents significant dose reduction.
