Varian Medical Systems will exhibit its line of PaxScan® digital image detectors and X-ray tubes for fluoroscopy, angiography, cardiology and cone-beam CT imaging at the MEDICA 2010 International Trade Fair in Dusseldorf, Germany from November 17-20.
The Varian booth will showcase several filmless imaging detectors and X-ray tube products, including:
- The PaxScan® 3030+, a 30cm x 30cm real-time digital imaging panel that operates at speeds up to 30 fps, enables physicians to monitor interventional procedures, including placement of catheters within blood vessels, in real-time. The multi-modality panel is also designed for use in cardiovascular imaging systems and surgical C-arms. The 194 micron pixel pitch results in images with high spatial and contrast resolution needed by critical applications such as cardiology and angiography.
- The PaxScan 4336R, a 43cm x 36cm DR panel that is the first ISO 4090 industry standard size panel designed to replace standard film cassettes used in existing radiographic and multi-bucky applications. The panel is also available with a portable hand-held enclosure for use in mobile imaging systems.
- Varian's line of X-ray tubes for medical and dental applications.
