Chase Lodge medical center in Mill Hill, North London, has installed an Agfa Healthcare CR30-X.
 
The medical center has also installed Agfa’s DrystarTM 5503 Imager and DS1000 Workstation to operate in conjunction with the new CR unit. Both the DX-S and DS1000 have capabilities to transfer image data to CD, whilst the DS1000 has capacity to store up to several years’ worth of images, according to Agfa.

Agfa said its multi-application CR 30-X is a compact, desktop CR solution more suitable for the smaller x-ray facilities such as Chase Lodge and other satellite units, orthopedic facilities and chiropractors.
