DR 100e *

Compact & affordable


mobile imaging system

Exceptional Ease – Mobility – Handling


IMAGING
made easy Not all patients who need imaging exams have the mobility
to move to the X-ray room. So if the patient can’t get to
imaging, imaging must come to the patient!

Enter the DR 100e: your compact mobile imaging system


that makes bedside and ICU imaging convenient and cost-
effective. Quickly maneuver it down even narrow corridors,
set it up right where you need it, and give your patient
a comfortable imaging experience. The powerful X-ray
generator and excellent Direct Radiography (DR) quality,
including MUSICA image processing, provide exceptional
cost-effectiveness and performance.

Choice of digital detectors
With the digital version, you choose your
digital detector depending on your needs. The
detectors come in different sizes, the smallest
of which fits into any incubator tray. They are
all based on the latest scintillator technology:
either Gadolinium Oxysulfide (GOS) or Cesium
Iodide (CsI). CsI technology also offers the
potential for dose reduction.1

COMFORT
With its convenient handling and compact Easy maneuverability for
size, the DR 100e offers improved challenging tasks
comfort for patient and operator alike. The mobile DR 100e is specially designed for the
confined spaces and hallways of hospitals and
clinics. Easily maneuvered to virtually any location,
its small width makes it ideal for the limited room in
the ICU or around the patient’s bedside. A choice of a
fixed or rotating column offers outstanding handling
flexibility for every budget. So even the smallest
healthcare facility can cope with challenging
imaging tasks.

Wireless mobility offers


improved flexibility
The wireless capability of the DR 100e detector
provides excellent flexibility, improving your overall
workflow. And wireless detectors offer a more
hygienic solution because no cable cleaning is
required making the DR 100e suitable for ICU,
pediatrics and neonatal areas.

Direct Radiography, on the go!


The DR 100e comes in analog and digital versions.
The analog version can handle a broad range of
general radiography X-ray studies using either
Computed Radiography (CR) cassettes or film, and
offers you an affordable upgrade path to Direct
Radiography (DR) at your own pace.

With the digital version, you can enjoy the


productivity benefits of DR, including a lower cost
per exam. Captured images can be validated
immediately after exposure; should a retake be
required, it can be made straightaway. The efficient
image acquisition, preview and finishing permits
a faster exam time, with improved operator
productivity and patient comfort.

1 Testing with board-certified radiologists has determined that Cesium


Bromide (CR) and Cesium Iodide (DR) Detectors, when used with
MUSICA image processing, can provide dose reductions between 50
to 60%, compared to traditional Barium Fluoro Bromide CR systems.
