Nine CR systems offer fast processing with lower dose potential
Radiographer Maeve Kirrane, student radiographer Geraldine Betts, radiographer Derick Muluwba, Agfa HealthCare key account manager Ges Shilvock, superintendent radiographer Simon Brown and radiographer Kirsty Roche.
Bristol Royal Infirmary has replaced its existing computed radiography systems with Agfa HealthCare CR, including five CR 30-X digitisers and four advanced, high-throughput CR systems. All come with Agfa HealthCare’s Musica image processing and workstation, which supports an efficient and optimised radiology workflow. A Drystar 5300 next-to-application direct digital printer is also included in the agreement.
“Our hospital’s overall mission is to provide patient care of the highest quality and implementing advanced tools such as Agfa HealthCare’s CR solutions demonstrates how we are following this commitment,” said superintendent radiographer Simon Brown. “We chose these as they will support us with faster processing, combined with higher resolution images and the potential to reduce radiation dose.”
