The U.S. FDA has cleared the Mobilett Elara Max mobile X-ray system from Siemens Healthineers, with features that enable comprehensive IT security as well as secure system integration into the hospital’s IT environment for continuous access to patient data. The system also has an improved design that includes an antimicrobial coating, Siemens officials say.

Mobilett Elara Max’ s security package helps healthcare facilities handle cyber-threats, while its virtual workstation technology provides access to necessary patient information directly at the bedside. The system also features fully integrated cables for an unobstructed front view that allows for easy maneuverability. Additionally, the system delivers 180-degree lateral arm movement that maximizes positioning options, according to Siemens officials.

“Siemens Healthineers is pleased to offer the Mobilett Elara Max, a mobile X-ray system with advanced cybersecurity features that provide state-of-the-art patient data protection,” says Scott Watson, vice president of X-ray products, Siemens Healthineers North America. “The system’s virtual workstation digitalizes healthcare by allowing technologists to access important patient information right at the bedside rather than return to the radiology department.”
