The medical X-ray image digitizer FCR PRIMA TM
Brand new universal tabletop CR-class digitizer equipped with a mammogram reader included in the standard package.
This device is suitable for a wide range of diagnostics, from obtaining long images of the entire spine or lower extremities to pantomography.
The FCR PRIMA Tm digitizer, in a lightweight and compact housing, can be installed on a table, shelf, or in limited space. Since it is a fully digital digitizer, a photo laboratory or automatic processing system is not required.
Medical digitizer of X-ray images FCR PRIMA T2
FCR PRIMA T2 is a tabletop digitizer with high processing speed of 73 IPs per hour. In high-speed mode (5 pixels/mm), the throughput increases by almost 70% compared to FCR PRIMA T (only for 35 x 43 mm and 35 x 35 mm IP plates). Like all FujiFilm equipment, FCR PRIMA T2 is user-friendly. It helps reduce patient waiting time and significantly improves diagnostic efficiency.
FCR PRIMA T2 with its light and compact tabletop design can be installed on a table, shelf, or in a limited space. Since this digitizer is fully digital, a photo lab or automatic developing system is not required. FCR PRIMA T2 can also be installed in places where liquid chemical developing systems are used.
Medical digitizer of X-ray images FCR CAPSULA XLII
One of the main components of FCR is the X-ray imaging plate, or IP, which is used instead of X-ray film to easily digitize images. FCR CAPSULA XL II features an IP in an innovative compact cassette, based on FUJIFILM’s over 70 years of experience in the development and use of technologies and innovations.
CAPSULA, derived from Latin, meaning ‘small box,’ was skillfully modified to become smaller and lighter, allowing flexible installation and placement options without sacrificing technical capabilities for a wide range of diagnostic visualization, from general radiography to pantomography.
Digital Converters
Working with digital X-ray images provides medical personal with more opportunities for quick and accurate diagnosis, as well as the ability to identify all the nuances of current therapy. Digital images can be magnified multiple times, and a series of images can be used to create a three-dimensional model. Digital X-ray files are easier to store, allow remote access, and are much more convenient for comparison and integration. There are many other advantages to digital X-ray images, and users of FUJIFILM equipment can easily take advantage of them with the help of special devices – digital converters.
How digital converters are used
A digital converter (also known as a digitizer) is a device for digitizing X-ray images. It converts the image into a digital format, allowing it to be used in medical software on a doctor’s computer. The digitizer is part of the CR (Computed Radiography) system, which also requires a special cassette for taking the X-ray image. Unlike DR (Digital Radiography) panels, which directly send the image to the doctor’s computer, this cassette needs to be scanned to transmit the image. This is the purpose of the X-ray digitizer. After digitization, the cassette can be cleared and reused.
X-ray digitizers help to:
- Reduce the workload on personnel;
- Transition to a digital format without significant financial costs;
- Increase the throughput of the X-ray room;
- Optimize the search, accounting, and storage of X-ray images;
- Simplify the diagnosis process and tracking treatment dynamics.
If the budget of a medical institution does not allow for the installation of equipment for digital radiography, it is more cost-effective to transition to using a CR system. The price of an X-ray digitizer is significantly lower, and with its help, a quality leap in work speed and diagnostics can be achieved even without substantial financial investments.
What are the features of FUJIFILM digital converters
As one of the leaders in the production of X-ray medical equipment, FUJIFILM employs unique principles in creating new technology. This includes high-speed operation without compromising quality, the use of “smart” software, and maximum simplicity and ease of use.
FUJIFILM’s X-ray digitizers are also designed based on these principles. All models of digitizers are very compact and ergonomic, allowing them to be installed even in small rooms. In different digitizer models for X-rays, you can control the level of noise, remove the coordinate grid from the image, enhance contrast and sharpness. Additional software enhances all diagnostic ranges that the equipment initially does not process.
FUJIFILM aims to make every X-ray room as efficient as possible. Therefore, digitizers (and other equipment from the brand) are distinguished by high accuracy, durability, ease of learning, and ease of management and maintenance.
How to choose and buy an X-ray digitizer
FUJIFILM produces digital digitizers of two types:
- Floor-standing
- Tabletop
Floor-standing X-ray digitizers
Floor-standing X-ray digitizers from FUJIFILM stand out from competitors not only due to advanced and high-quality electronics. Their external appearance also excels thanks to compact dimensions and high ergonomics. The sufficient height allows for convenient insertion and removal of cassettes from the devices, and the narrow body allows the equipment to be compactly placed under a table or in a niche next to the medical workstation.
Equipment of this type is characterized by very high productivity (up to 55 or 94 plates per hour depending on the model), “smart” image enhancement, and a range of other useful options. For example, one of the devices supports digitizing three types of cassettes and can be optimized for reading mammographic images.
Tabletop X-ray digitizers
Tabletop X-ray digitizers can be placed not only on the table but also on shelves, carts, in niches—occupying only 0.3 square meters in device area. Access to such devices is the most convenient; externally, they resemble ordinary printers for printing.
When choosing a tabletop digitizer from FUJIFILM, pay attention to:
- Processing speed. This parameter indicates how quickly the device can digitize images (from 57 to 73 per hour, depending on the device model and plate size).
- Additional features. For example, one of the models can digitize mammographic X-ray images (40 per hour) and has additional dust protection. Other models offer the installation of additional software that enhances the quality of images.
FUJIFILM X-ray digitizers are compatible with various types of workstations from the same manufacturer and support the connection of multiple devices. The control of floor-standing models is also simple and intuitive.
Depending on the profile of the medical institution, the needs for a digitizer may vary. We will help you choose the best option based on functionality and cost.
