A leading provider of diagnostic imaging products and medical informatics solutions plans to reveal an innovative new long-length DR detector at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2015).

The Digital Radiography (DR) detector is intended for single exposure long-length digital imaging and has a 43.18 x 124.46 cm field of view. The detector enhances image quality, features Irradiation Side Sampling (ISS) technology, and noise reduction circuitry to ensure clear, sharp images at a low dose for upright long-length radiography imaging.

The FDR D-EVO GL detector was developed by FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA (Stamford, CT, USA) and received FDA 510(k) clearance on November 5, 2015. The company provides a range of digital X-Ray systems, the Synapse Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), Radiology Information (RIS) systems, advanced women’s health imaging and cardiovascular systems, and vendor neutral enterprise-wide medical image management solutions.

The FDR D-EVO GL can enhance long-length exam efficiency dramatically compared to conventional DR stitching systems that require multiple exposures and more time. Stitching systems also increase the chance of patient movement during exposures, compared to single exposure systems.

Rob Fabrizio, director of marketing and product development, Digital X-Ray and Women’s Health, FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA, said, “Once again, Fujifilm is revolutionizing digital radiography. The new detector allows technologists to efficiently acquire challenging long-length exams using low dose DR technology.”
