Scottish emergency department installs Xograph DR system

The accident and emergency (A&E) department at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley, Scotland, has installed Xoagraph Healthcare’s dDR general radiography system.

The Tetbury, England-based Xograph said it deployed its buckyStar dDR general radiography system, incorporating Canon’s portable, lightweight flat panel dDR detectors, the 23x29cm CXDI-31 and 35x43cm CXDI-50C, as well as the fixed 43x43cm CXDI-40EC.

The Royal Alexandra Hospital serves a population of over 200,000, and the A&E department manages a spectrum of casualties.
