Improved digital X-ray

to digital technology strengthens its presence in the Mexican sector of health with the launch of the digital room for advanced X-ray taken , called DRX- ASCEND corresponding to Carestream , a company dedicated to the development and manufacture of X-ray images

This is a new digital radiography system , which becomes an innovation to leapfrog traditional analog process that still predominate in hospitals and health centers , public or private .

A few years ago the rooms with the analog system required a kind of metal bed where he lay for patient X-rays do their job .

The image was printed on opaque color film , which is then kept in a house , a kind of metal folder to prevent ensure and took 20 to 30 minutes to be revealed.

However, if the image projected the information needed to make a diagnosis, another attempt was to be executed .

Currently the convergence in the analog-digital process has positively transformed to x-ray process .

The computed radiography adopted the analog method , but with digital tools . The XRD, using continuous bed but now uses the laser , leaving behind the use of film and instead uses a panel the booth silicon bromide , which has the ability to capture the image , but not save the sent wirelessly to a screen.

This provides a total manipulation of radiography , ie using software you can make changes, such as changing contrast, sharpness and a single shot.

Once the doctor finds the desired angle, according to the diagnosis , can be sent to a laser printer or save to the server as a Word file .

The change of the analog by digital tools , become health solutions , ie can be diagnosed in a more accurate , having the ability to edit and manipulate the image, increasing the number of patient care because optimizing the time and resources. Besides lowering radiation levels in patients and radiographers .
