Agfa DR 800: New Concepts in Dynamic Imaging

Since radiation dose is of particular concern for both patients and clinicians, Agfa Radiology Solutions aimed to contribute to dose and image quality optimization by extending the established and well-known MUSICA® image processing platform with a dedicated concept for dynamic image processing. Together with the DR 800 multi-purpose X-ray system, a novel approach using Dynamic Multiscale Enhancement™ (DME) for optimal dynamic image quality at the lowest possible radiation dose was introduced.

While the DR 800 was already well-established in the DR market, customers have been very appreciative of the excellent dynamic image quality enabled by the newly introduced and patented DME processing algorithm.

This new White paper provides deeper insights into the new concept, which has been successfully introduced along with a number of other features and improvements for optimal fluoroscopy and Rapid Sequence imaging.
