ROCHESTER, N.Y., Dec. 10 — Mobile X-ray imaging systems are essential tools for surgeons who want to view the positioning of medical devices or evaluate the progress of a variety of corrective procedures. Surgeons on the medical staff of Baylor University Medical Center (Dallas, Texas) now have access to high-quality images in as little as five seconds thanks to the implementation of two CARESTREAM DRX-Revolution Mobile X-ray Systems. These systems are moved from patient to patient as needed in the hospital’s 56-bed surgical suite.
The hospital also implemented a CARESTREAM DRX-Evolution system with a wall stand and elevating table to serve a busy X-ray room that performs a variety of inpatient and outpatient procedures and converted an existing analog X-ray room to wireless digital radiography with the CARESTREAM DRX-1 System.
With 1,065 licensed beds, Baylor University Medical Center serves as the flagship hospital of Baylor Health Care System and is a major patient care, teaching and research center for the Southwest.
Carestream’s DRX family of imaging systems offers fully featured mobile X-ray systems and digital radiography rooms, and equips healthcare providers to affordably convert existing X-ray rooms and portable imaging systems from CR to DR using DRX detectors. The company enables users to register any DRX detector for use with any DRX system—a capability known as the X-Factor.
