Portiuncula Hospital have just taken receipt for their new Shimadzu DaRt Evolution mobile DR system from HSL (Hospital Services Ltd). This new Direct Digital mobile system will enable the hospital to acquire high resolution low dose X-Ray images.

The hospital is also utilising the new Canon CXDI-701C AED detector within their existing X-Ray room to assist with patients that have been involved in RTC’s.

Margaret Dervan Radiology Services Manager commented.

“The new Shimadzu mobile DaRt Evolution from HSL will make a huge difference within our department. We will have the ability to view images instantaneously on the mobile in ICU while also improving image quality and reducing dose. The ability to use the new Canon AED detector within our existing X-Ray rooms will be a huge help and will make a big difference when dealing with complex cases”.

Susan Coyle Radiology Services Manager in GUH commented

“We are delighted to have taken delivery of our new Shimadzu Mobile EFX DaRt from HSL (Hospital Services Ltd) This system will make a massive difference within our hospital in term of image quality, reduced dose and higher patient throughput. The system will be predominantly based in the ICU unit where we will now have the ability to acquire Digital images within 2 seconds. This is a fantastic advantage compared to our older systems as the Consultants can view the images at the bedside if needed. This system is also wireless so the images can be sent straight to PAC once they have been taken. With the complex nature of patients in ICU the fact that we now have a Wireless DR detector means that there will be less patient movement which is always positive.”
