Kub Technologies

Kub Technologies (Kubtec) (Booth 1345) is introducing the Xpert 20, a digital specimen radiography system exclusively for the biopsy suite. The Xpert 20 is available with either a 50mm x 50mm detector or a 100mm x 50mm detector in a self-contained, shielded cabinet x-ray system that takes up less space than a PC monitor. A small focal spot x-ray source provides increased visibility and sharpness of detail for lesions and abnormalities in breast tissue samples. With an x-ray source of up to 25kV and 1.0mA, the Xpert 20 provides images with the highest resolution to locate the smallest micro-calcifications. All systems include DICOM compliant, user-friendly software with AEC (automatic exposure control), auto-calibration, automatic window leveling, the ability to send multiple images with annotations to PACS and zero warm-up time.

Around the web

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

Richard Heller III, MD, RSNA board member and senior VP of policy at Radiology Partners, offers an overview of policies in Congress that are directly impacting imaging.
 

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