Development based on the Infinix-i series platform, the floor-mounted, single plane system features a multi-axis positioner with versatile movement for patient access and anatomical coverage. Its high-resolution 12-by-16-inch, flat-panel detector provides the images required for a range of cardiovascular studies.
