FUJIFILM Healthcare Americas Corporation, a leading provider of medical imaging and informatics solutions, announced the launch of several advanced automated functions for its FDR Visionary Suite digital radiography room. Optimized to support high-volume imaging in hospital radiology departments and imaging centers, the automation features are designed to enhance workflow and improve the patient and technologist experience for a wide range of general radiology exams.
The advanced automated functions help simplify exam set-up and patient positioning. For example, the system’s Intelligent Camera Assist feature, which is built into the suite’s collimator, offers a live view of the patient from the control room, as well as positioning guidance at the tube and optional motion detection to help guide positioning accuracy and prevent retakes. The SpeedLink™ feature automatically sets preferred, dose-saving techniques and collimation field size to the selected exam. The FDR Visionary Suite’s automated positioning guidance overlays and advanced pre-exposure motion detection alerts help technologists prevent retakes.
In addition to the system’s automation features, the system is designed with patient comfort in mind. FDR Visionary Suite accommodates patients of all sizes and patients with mobility challenges, as it features a large tabletop and stroke with motorized elevation, and a weight capacity of 649 lbs. Additionally, the system automatically captures long length images of up to 63” upright and 47” supine. Misalignments caused by patient movement can be corrected through automatic motion correction software, and images can be captured in as little as 20 seconds, for a better patient experience.
