Carestream Health recently sold its 1,500th wireless, cassette-size CARESTREAM DRX-1 detector. The company’s popular DRX-based systems enable healthcare providers to boost productivity while enhancing patient care.
The DRX-1 system features a cassette-size DR detector that fits into an existing table or wall stand Bucky to enable cost-effective conversion from film or CR imaging systems without replacing x-ray systems or renovating exam rooms.
The DRX platform allows detectors to be shared among multiple x-ray systems. For example, a detector can be used in a mobile imaging unit for early morning hospital rounds and then moved to a DRX-1 system or DRX-Evolution suite for the rest of the day. DRX detectors can also be moved from day use in general radiology rooms to mobile units that serve the emergency department at night.
