Agfa HealthCare launches mobile Retrofit solution to upgrade existing Siemens MOBILETT X-ray system to digital at ECR 2015

Solution offers the workflow and image quality benefits of mobile DR, while maximising existing mobile equipment with quick, easy and non-invasive installation
 
  • Mobile Retrofit affordably upgrades mobile analog and computed radiography (CR) systems to direct radiography (DR).
  • It lets any facility experience the workflow and image quality benefits mobile DR brings.
  • With MUSICA image processing, it provides an "instant DR" solution offering excellent image quality with high contrast detail.
 
Agfa HealthCare announces that it will showcase its new Mobile Retrofit solution to upgrade analog Siemens MOBILETT X-ray units at ECR 2015. The Mobile Retrofit solution lets hospitals and radiography departments make the most of their existing mobile investments - whether analog or CR radiography systems - by affordably upgrading them to DR.
 
Wireless and cable-free detector
The Mobile Retrofit offers a quick, simple and non-invasive installation, so the solution is ready to go in next to no time, very cost-effectively. There is no battery-operated mobile retrofit box to fit and no cabling around the X-ray unit, for greater flexibility and hygiene.
 
The solution includes a mounting kit for Siemens MOBILETT, a laptop computer, portable Wi-Fi router and Agfa HealthCare's new DX-D 40 flat panel digital detector with Automatic Exposure Detection (AED). AED requires no electrical connection to the X-ray imaging device, so the detector can work seamlessly with virtually any X-ray system. Complemented by Agfa HealthCare's next generation MUSICA image processing, the Mobile Retrofit provides an "Instant DR" solution offering "no-excuses" image quality with maximum contrast detail.
 
Flexibility and cost-effectiveness plus the benefits of DR

"Our goal is to make sure that every hospital, regardless of size or budget, can take advantage of the benefits of DR," comments Louis Kuitenbrouwer, Vice-President Imaging division of Agfa HealthCare. "The Mobile Retrofit combines the flexibility of a mobile solution with all the advantages of DR."
