By acquiring the image in one exposure, the detector decreases radiation dose and overall exam time compared with studies that require multiple exposures, Carestream said.
DRX-L also features the firm's ImageView software with the Eclipse image processing application. What's more, it includes Carestream's X‑Factor technology, enabling its use with other compatible DRX equipment, according to the company.
It can be utilized with Carestream digital x‑ray products such as the DRX‑Evolution Plus/DRX‑Evolution, DRX‑Ascend, Q-Rad X‑ray, and DRX‑1 digital x‑ray systems.
