PinnacleHealth Uses Toshiba Wireless X-ray for Safer, More Efficient Exams

October 4, 2013 — Offering its clinicians more flexibility while improving patient safety and workflow, PinnacleHealth installed a Radrex-i Wireless digital radiographic (DR) X-ray system from Toshiba America Medical Systems Inc. PinnacleHealth utilizes the system for a variety of general exams including orthopedic, pediatric and bariatric imaging.

“The Radrex-i Wireless enhances workflow with its wireless detector, while automated technology like RexView allows technologists to make point-of-care decisions by reviewing images bedside,” said Karen Botts, administrative director, Imaging, PinnacleHealth.

The Radrex-i Wireless features a lightweight, easy-to-use, cableless 14" x 17" panel. The wireless panel improves image quality, as it can be positioned more closely to the anatomy when performing such work as tabletop imaging of extremities and gurney-patient imaging.
