Fujifilm introduces DR Cassette for a smart digital evolution Integration of advanced DR in existing CR environments

FUJIFILM Europe GmbH is pleased to unveil the FDR D-EVO, a unique flat panel DR cassette, at the European congress of Radiology (ECR) which is held from March 4 to 8 in Vienna, Austria. Ideal for any clinical environment, FDR D-EVO uses an innovative new technology to provide clinicians with Fujifilm?s trademark image quality and outstanding flexibility. D-EVO is a smart way for users to transition to DR without modification to the exam room. The light weight and fast flat panel DR cassette provides portability to address lateral or other cassette-based exams as needed, even in existing DR rooms.

The FDR D-EVO represents the latest addition to Fujifilm?s impressive line-up of DR products. Featuring secure network connectivity, D-EVO transmits images to the technologist workstation in only 3 seconds and features 9 second cycle times. (1) FDR D-EVO uses Fujifilm?s patented ISS (Irradiation Side Sampling) to improve DQE (detective quantum efficiency) for outstanding image quality. This patented technology reduces the distance for light signals reaching the sensor, mitigating diffusion and attenuation for enhanced image sharpness and reduced noise. The result is FDR images with consistent high quality images and increased diagnostic confidence.

``FDR D-EVO is a new proof of Fujifilm?s dedication to intelligent product evolution. Fujifilm developed a portable DR cassette-based solution that offers outstanding flexibility, speed and value without compromising image quality,´´ says Tsuneo Sakai, Senior Vice President Medical Systems Division of FUJIFILM Europe GmbH. ``The FDR D-EVO also offers clear advantages to technologists like with its lower weight for easier positioning and comfort, along with quick cycle times to minimize waiting.´´
