MULTIX FD is a universal General Radiography System using advanced digital flatpanel detector technology.
The new digital flat panel detector system allows you to acquire exposures ofthe skull, spinal column, abdomen, and extremities without the use ofconventional film/ screen systems.
The X-rays are acquired via a CsJ scintillator and digitalized in the detectormatrix
The MULTIX FD system is primarily used in hospital radiology departments andprivate practices with high patient throughput and standardizedapplications.
Routine examinations have been largely automated.
The optimized workflow prevents wait times and ensures high patientthroughput.
Manual activities such as loading and transporting the cassettes as well ascentering the X-ray tube to the receptor stand have been eliminated.
Multix FD is based on amorphous silicon flat-panel detectors manufactured byTrixell, the French joint-venture company formed
by Siemens, Philips, and Thomson Tubes Electroniques. Siemens adapted thedetectors to conventional analog x-ray systems.
Multix FD is a table-based system.
In designing Multix FD, Siemens began with its Multix TOP conventionaltable-based x-ray system, which was first released about two years ago with theunderstanding that digital detectors would be added later. In addition toadding the detector itself, Siemens developed a new Windows NT-basedworkstation for operating the unit.
result features several innovations that should improve its functionality. Onesuch feature is the ability to automatically track the overhead x-ray tube toeither of the system's buckys.
The workstation used in Multix FD is the key to the productivity gains that canbe achieved with the systems.
The computer's software was developed with the idea of automating theprocedures of an x-ray exam as much as possible.;
For example, the workstation can be connected to the hospital's HIS/RIS, enablingusers to download patient information to the workstation.
The workstation then automatically adjusts the x-ray system's parameters tomatch the procedure that has been ordered.
The system also enables technologists to review exposures instantly to makesure they're acceptable, a process that can take several minutes with aconventional x-ray unit.
Once a procedure has been completed, the study can be sent to a laser printerfor output or to a PACS via DICOM storage class connections.
The Trixell panel has a resolution of 143 microns, which is an improvement onthe 200-micron resolution of the amorphous silicon panels used by GE MedicalSystems in its Revolution XQi system.
