Fujifilm Medical Systems USA introduced its Synapse version 3.2, the newest release of Fuji’s PACS, which includes additional digital mammography capabilities. Synapse 3.2 is being introduced on the heels of the FDA approval of Fuji’s FCRm FFDM system, and is designed to further assist facilities with workflow, visualization and image processing.

The ultrasound division of Siemens Medical Solutions featured its new Acuson X300 and Acuson X500 ultrasound scanners, as well as upgrades to its ultrasound workstation software and new cardiac imaging techniques. Siemens touts the X300 as offering exceptional imaging performance in a compact, portable package. It is compatible with the ErgoDynamic imaging system.

In an effort to make digital imaging available to a wider variety of facilities, Siemens Medical Solutions launched the first mobile X-ray unit with an integrated computed radiography reader. The MobileTT XP CR provides display for first-image review and image archiving right at the patient’s bedside.
