From the November 2019 issue of HealthCare Business News magazine
The following are just some of the products and services on display at RSNA 2019.
FLUOROspeed X1
Shimadzu Medical Systems - South Hall A, #1315
Shimadzu’s newest radiographic/fluoroscopy system is a conventional RF table system offering high image quality and multitude of features to improve workflow. The patient-side table has a 665 lb. static patient weight and 500 lb. all motion weight, and can perform bariatric and daily routine RF exams. The X1 comes equipped with a 17”x17” dynamic digital x-ray detector in the table bucky. With its 31.5 inch aperture opening between table top and deck, the X1 is the ideal RF system for imaging patients in wheelchairs yet can fit in smaller rooms.
SONIALVISION G4 LX
Shimadzu Medical Systems - South Hall A, #1315
Shimadzu introduced a new configuration for the SONIALVISION G4 universal digital R/F table system. The new configuration, known as the G4 LX, offers an optional 180 cm SID expanding Shimadzu’s RF product portfolio with an addition to an already high performing system. With the 180 cm SID configuration, the SVG4 brings additional functionality for making chest exposures with the table in the vertical position. In institutions where only small rooms are available, the 180 cm SID is used for making chest exposures where RF exams are needed but the space is not available to add a CTM and wall-stand.
WorkstationOne
Three Palm Software – North Hall B, #8110
WorkstationOne is the leading software solution for reading breast imaging modalities, providing an efficient workflow along with expert tools. Enhancements being shown at RSNA 2019 include a bundled plugin viewer for multi-modality comparison, and a graphical tool for markup localization across views, which is useful to convey markup locations to non-radiologists (e.g., for positioning in a follow-up ultrasound exam). These features build on extensive support for tomosynthesis, 3D ultrasound, and expanding support for AI vendors (including 3D interaction for tomosynthesis studies). WorkstationOne includes mechanisms for integration with existing PACS and reporting systems, so that it can be used to upgrade a site’s capabilities (e.g., for tomosynthesis reading) while not disturbing existing infrastructure.
