Xograph wins digital x-ray installs at London hospital

Barts and The London NHS Trust is installing six new mobile digital x-ray systems (Mobile DaRt) and one new mobile image intensifer (Ziehm Vision R) from Xograph Healthcare.

The Mobile DaRt is a motor driven, mobile Direct-DR unit incorporating Canon's 800-speed CXDI-50C portable, single tile, flat-panel detector. The imaging system is useful for all bedside examinations in departments such as trauma and ICU, according to the Gloucestershire, U.K.-based company.

The Ziehm Vision R C-arm can be used in interventional vascular procedures and plays a vital role in the treatment of vascular disease. Surgeons will now be equipped with clearer images with the company’s Clear View technology, Xograph said.

The new technology shows early potential to make a significant impact on imaging workflows and patient care.

The two companies aim to improve patient access to high-quality MRI scans by combining their artificial intelligence capabilities.
