Retrofit your Way into the Digital Radiography Age

The field of Medical Imaging has experienced numerous advances over the years, each adding its own benefits to the health care industry. Overall, these improvements have helped better the health outcomes of patients through bolstered diagnoses and treatment strategies. From their earliest days, X-rays have helped Radiologists properly care for patients with injuries and conditions that cannot be determined by the naked eye.

Today, Digital Radiography has paved the way for X-ray equipment to remain useful, even during the extinction of analog film. Still, some physicians fail to see the advantages of implementing upgrades to their equipment. With Viztek’s line of retrofitting options, imaging centers now have access to cost-effective pathways of improving their hardware.

The incentives of upgrading
Although it may be a challenging decision, there are numerous advantages to upgrading analog film for digital imaging. For one, the process is much faster and significantly reduces the amount of time it takes to process images for review. The scan is uploaded into the software instantaneously, allowing technicians to confer with radiologists on the results.

Additionally, Digital X-ray Systems provide superior image quality when compared to the original film X-ray machines. It also decreases the amount of radiation exposure, which is at the forefront of the imaging industry in campaigns such as Image Wisely and Image Gently. Reducing dosages and limiting the number of unnecessary procedures can be instrumental in improving the value of radiology.

Finally, eliminating the imaging plate from traditional X-ray further reduces the processing time of images.

The imaging solutions from Viztek can be tailored to fit multiple configurations depending on the needs of a medical facility. The cost-efficiency of switching can help save practices money on servicing or replacing old equipment, underscoring the advantages of digital radiography.
