Medical Systems Division, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "Now more than ever
facilities and practices are looking for ways to mainstream their
operations without sacrificing quality patient care. The Canon CXDI-55G,
CXDI-55C, and CXDI-60C flat panel detectors offer a variety of
configuration options to help meet their diverse needs."
Canon CXDI-55G, CXDI-55C and CXDI-60C
The Canon CXDI-55G and CXDI-55C flat panel detectors are the thinnest
flat panel detectors the Company has offered to date, just 0.6 inches
thick, the same thickness as a standard film cassette. Offering an
effective imaging area of 14 x 17 inches, both models accommodate a wide
variety of locations including skull, spine, chest, abdomen, and
extremity examination. Weighing just 7.5 pounds, the Canon CXDI-55G and
CXDI-55C flat panel detectors are light enough for use in trauma centers
and Intensive Care Units (ICUs), simple to grip and handle so that both
the patient and X-ray technician can comfortably hold it in place during
image capture.
The Canon CXDI-60C advanced LANMIT detector technology acquires
high-quality diagnostic images with minimal X-ray exposure to patients,
making it an ideal device for pediatric and orthopedic applications.
Thin, lightweight and robust weighing only 5.5 pounds and less than an
inch think (0.9 inches), the Canon CXDI-60C flat panel detector offers
an effective imaging area of 9 x 11 inches. Equipped with a smooth
carrying handle, the Canon CXDI-60C flat panel detector allows for easy
handling, even by the patient, if necessary.
