Best-in-class: Sonialvision G4 multifunctional R/F system The Sonialvision G4 high performance R/F table provides numerous best-in-class fea- tures significantly increasing its functional- ity and operability. Sonialvision G4 unites the widest possible range of examinations with inter-departmental hospital capabili- ty. The largest available FPD at 43 x 43 cm provides an extensive imaging area. An additional ceiling-mounted telescopic arm, a Bucky wall stand, and a second mobile FPD, turn the system into a sophisticated multifunctional R/F room. • SUREengine-Advance is a leading-edge digital image processing technology and ensures extremely clear fluoroscopy and radiography images. • Slot Advance provides high accuracy imag- es with long fields of view, such as for full spine or full leg images, taken with a min- imal X-ray dose. SLOT Advance acquires a series of accurate images of a few centime- tres central slit as the imaging chain moves successively along the patient and allows precise measurements of extremities. • Tomosynthesis is a proven X-ray imaging technology for higher precision diagnoses. In a simple and quick workflow, and at a low exposure dose, tomosynthesis state- of-the-art imaging technology offers high quality multi-slice images to visualize the differently sized wireless flat panel detec- tors (FPD), broadens its applications from clinical rounds in hospitals to critical care and applications at disaster sites, as well as operating rooms and neonatal inten- sive care units (NICU). The choice of three detectors (42x43, 35x43, and 27x35 cm) provides superior flexibility for users. They combine high sensitivity with the lowest possible dose of radiation and provide sharp high-quality images in areas such as radiology, emergency rooms, traumatology, orthopedics, pediatrics, or on the ward. New features improve safety as well as pro- cessing speed, and save energy: • vibration-resistant DR unit adopting a high-speed solid-state drive (SSD), there- by reducing the risk of data loss • energy saving collimator with a bright irra- diation field through LEDs • LCD monitor with a wide viewing angle around the unit • FPD contributing to improved procedural efficiency. part which is invisible for conventional plain radiography. • T-smart provides even clearer tomosyn- thesis images suppressing the artefacts around metal objects even further. This application is of great help in orthope- dics especially for patients with metal implants or fixators as it allows a very exact diagnosis of the status of the boundary between bone and implant. RADspeed Pro EDGE The new RADspeed Pro EDGE digital radiog- raphy system adds numerous functionalities to support diagnostics in clinical appli- cations. • Tomosynthesis allows to easily obtain multiple digital cross-sec- tion images from a single linear tomography scan. • Dual-energy subtraction uti- lizes the difference in X-ray absorption levels of bones and soft tissue to gener- ate separate images, which is useful for diagnoses in the chest area, such as lung cancer. • Auto-stitching radiography covers the entire lower extremities or entire spine and links the settings made on the X-ray tube with the Bucky table or Bucky stand with subsequent automatic image stitching. • Dedicated tomosynthesis workstation allows parallel processing of data with examinations increasing the throughput and reducing the stress on patients. Mobile X-ray applications: evolving technology with outstanding flexibility The new X-ray MobileDaRt Evolution EFX can be moved to any location where radi- ography is required, enabling on-site examinations and image verification.
