The CARESTREAM DRX-1 System, shown as a work in progress, will be available in many regions of the world in the second quarter of 2009. The KODAK CARESTREAM PACS, MX-Ortho Solution is currently available in the United States and Canada.
The DRX-1 System will provide an affordable, smooth transition to a highly productive DR workflow since it can be deployed in all applications where a 14 x 17 inch (35 x 43 cm) x-ray cassette would be used. This system does not require modification of existing x-ray rooms, which can enable increased adoption by orthopedic practices as well as other healthcare providers. The DRX-1 system will deliver high-quality preview images in about five seconds. Its compact size and light weight further enhance convenience and throughput.
