Fujifilm Medical Systems USA, Inc. has announced the FDA 510(k) clearance of its newest Fuji DR (FDR) system, the Unity SpeedSuite(TM). Fujifilm Medical Systems USA, Inc. has announced the FDA 510(k) clearance of its newest Fuji DR (FDR) system, the Unity SpeedSuite™. Deliveries of Unity SpeedSuite are expected to begin this month.

"The Unity SpeedSuite provides facilities with FDR's totally automated digital x-ray, along with the added benefit of a flexible, user-friendly design," said Kevin Oakley, Fujifilm's National Marketing Manager Digital X-ray. "Unity SpeedSuite bridges the gap for facilities that want the speed and image quality of Fuji DR but lack the physical space for a dual-detector system. With this newest addition to our comprehensive DR product line, we expect to expand Fujifilm's DR market share in the US."

Unity SpeedSuite performs a wide range of general radiographic exams, including both table-based and upright procedures. Fully motorized, the system can be easily positioned and controlled to do most any exam from chest to extremities.

The Unity SpeedSuite includes a wireless handheld remote and site-customizable settings so facilities can program the exams that they perform most. It requires a smaller footprint than traditional DR systems, providing a flexible option for space-constrained rooms. Unity SpeedSuite also includes SpeedLink X-ray Control Software™, an intelligent interface between the Flash IIP workstation and the x-ray generator. By automatically setting all exposure settings for each exam according to Fujifilm's anatomical menu parameters, SpeedLink eliminates workflow steps and saves time.
