Varex was the first company in the world to deliver amorphous silicon flat-panel detectors capable of both fluoroscopic and radioscopic digital imaging. Fllat panel detectors for digital radiography create images by converting the X rays that strike its surface into light, and then turning the light into digital data that a computer can display as high-quality images.
Varex flat panel detectors combine amorphous silicon sensor panels, radiation-converting materials, low-noise analog and high-speed digital electronics, custom ASIC control and processing electronics, and compact packaging into quality DR flat panel x ray detectors.
Advantages of Varex Digital Radiography Flat Panel Detectors
- Cesium Iodide (CsI) scintillators
- 10″ x 12″
- 14″ x 17"
- 17″ x 17″
- Fixed, Tethered and Wireless platforms
- Direct deposition CsI for sharper images and lower dose
- Integrated with the Avanse image acquisition software
-
Digital flat panel detectors are more durable, lighter, compact and more accurate.
-
For use in mammography, direct conversion flat panel detectors outperform film and indirect technologies in terms of resolution, signal-to-noise ratio, and dose efficiency.
- X ray flat panel detetcors produce less image distortion than x-ray image intensifiers.
- Digital flat panel x ray detectors are faster and more sensitive than film.
-
Increased sensitivity, when using DR plates allows for a lower dose of radiation for similar results comapred to film.
-
For general radiography applications, digital radiography flat panel detectors save time compared to computed radiology and especially film imaging systems
