The radiology department at King George Hospital in Ilford wanted to upgrade to digital imaging while improving work-flow but on a limited budget.  By installing a Fujifilm D-Evo Retrofit system in all four x-ray rooms, the department has fully upgraded to digital imaging at a fraction of the cost of putting in new rooms.

Lead radiographer Benjamin Buckland said: “Since installation we have been able to transform our patient service and workflow.  Our department runs much more smoothly now, with reduced waiting times for in-patients and out-patients.  In addition there is a significant improvement in the efficiency and workflow for our radiographic team.”
