Radcal Corporation (Monrovia, CA, USA) presented its wide range of diagnostic radiation test instruments for measuring a comprehensive set of parameters at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) in Vienna.

At ECR 2022, Radcal demonstrated its stand-alone instruments, the Accu-Gold Touch Series. These measurement systems incorporate the largest customizable capacitive 5-inch touchscreen in the industry for a bright and straightforward user experience. In addition, the Accu-Gold Touch provides access to the full lineup of Accu-Gold sensors, the most extensive line of x-ray quality assurance sensors available. The Accu-Gold Touch provides the accuracy and reliability in an economical package. Alternatively, The Accu-Gold Touch Professional Series provides wired and wireless computer interfaces. Using the Accu-Gold Windows application users are able to access a rich set of advanced capabilities such as automated Excel-based reporting and waveform analysis.

Radcal also introduced its new 10X6-60DAP sensor for measuring DAP and DAP Rate on CBCT and other small beam systems. The 10x6-60DAP is an economical easy-to-use accessory for its Accu-Gold Touch systems that is ideal for satisfying emerging QA requirements, especially Dental CBCT. This time saving chamber can be combined with any of the company’s Accu-Gold+ or Touch System platforms and is an easy addition to its already comprehensive array of measurement capabilities.
