The expanding FDR portfolio is strengthened by Fujifilm's patented advanced detector technology - a key factor to the company's renowned image quality and an inspiration behind the company's "Gentle Touch. Brilliant Image." program. Each new FDR system includes Irradiation Side Sampling (ISS),that improves detective quantum efficiency (DQE) by reducing the distance for light signals to reach the sensor. This unique innovation achieves significant dose efficiency improvements compared to similar DR detectors. It also reduces scatter and blur of the fluorescence light, resulting in sharper images with greater detail that enhances diagnostic confidence for the radiologist.

"Whether a clinician needs a lightweight flat panel detector for an orthopedic exam, or a facility wishes to replace an entire x-ray suite, Fujifilm will provide an effective solution from one of the most comprehensive DR product lines on the market," says DavidHotchkiss, Director of Marketing for Modality Solutions at Fujifilm. "Our variety, coupled with our advanced ISS technology and renowned image quality, proves that Fujifilm is the DR provider of choice."

The FDR product line includes:DR Room Options: FDR AcSelerate Suite(TM), a fully integrated dual detector DR system from Fujifilm designed to be a complete radiographic room replacement solution. Fully automated with quick image preview and cycle times, the system also helps improve productivity and enables increased patient throughput to address the busiest environments.
