For Sale AGFA DX-G CR

DX-G Next-generation CR System 2013

The DX-G digitizer unites superb image
quality with a drop-and-go buffer-based
workflow and enables a potential
reduction in patient dose. It offers the
unprecedented convenience of being
able to combine standard phosphor
plates and needle-based detectors.

• State-of-the-art image quality,
with potential dose reduction
• Drop-and-go cassette buffer
• Broad range of applications
• Both needle-based detectors
and standard phosphor plates

The next-generation in CR for general radiography
departments, the DX-G digitizer unites superb image
quality with the convenience of supporting both standard
phosphor plates and needle-based detectors. The exclusive
DirectriX detector technology offers the potential for a
significant patient dose reduction. With a user-friendly
drop-and-go buffer that can handle a mix of five cassettes of
different sizes, workflow is smoother and more productive.
The DX-G can be used as a centralized or decentralized
digitizer in the radiography department, supporting a
broad range of applications. In a centralized environment,
it can serve multiple rooms. At the same time, its small
footprint means it can be placed in any available space.

The combination of needle-based detectors, standard
phosphor plates with specific cassettes and image
resolution mode make the DX-G ideal for a broad range of
applications:
• General radiography
• Orthopedics - extremities
• Dental
• Pediatrics and neonatal
• Full Leg / Full Spine
It offers two different image resolution modes: 100 µm
pixel pitch (10 pixels/mm) and 150 µm pixel pitch
(6.7 pixels/mm).
State-of-the art image quality, with potential dose
reduction
By supporting both standard phosphor plates and needlebased detectors, the DX-G unites complete convenience
with top image quality, while leveraging the radiography
department’s existing investments. With standard
phosphor plates, the DX-G delivers excellent image quality.
When used with DirectriX needle-based detectors, however,
the DX-G provides superb image quality with a much
higher Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE). This state-ofthe-art image quality offers the potential to reduce patient
dose.
Maximum productivity and smooth workflow
The drop-and-go buffer and fast preview eliminate waiting
times and facilitate a continuous workflow within the
department. The five-cassette drop-and-go buffer can
handle a mix of different sizes of both needle-based
detectors and standard phosphor plates. The automatic
cassette handling makes DX-G highly productive and
user-friendly.
Using DX-G as a central digitizer in the radiography
department, multiple examination rooms can be supported.
With its small footprint, it can fit into the tightest spaces,
including the X-ray room or even a narrow corridor.
The right choice
To eliminate any confusion, needle-based detector
cassettes are gray, while standard phosphor plate cassettes
are orange, so that there is no chance of the user making a
mistake when selecting the desired cassette. Each plate has
an embedded memory that stores the data entered during
identification by no-touch radiofrequency tagging. Thus,
the identification data and images are linked from the
beginning throughout the entire digital processing system
