Siemens Healthcare has received FDA 510(k) market clearance for the Ysio(TM), a new generation digital radiography system with a wireless detector.

Siemens Healthcare (www.siemens.com/healthcare) has received FDA 510(k) market clearance for the Ysio™, a new generation digital radiography system with a wireless detector (wi-D™) for maximum positioning flexibility.

Offering one digital radiography (DR) solution for virtually all clinical demands of the growing digital radiography market, the Ysio can be customized to suit the patient's needs – such as one or two detectors, with or without a patient table, and with fully automated or synchronized movements. Due to its versatility, the Ysio serves radiography needs no matter what the imaging volume, protocols, or patient profiles, and its performance features geared toward short examination times make it an ideal system for increasing daily patient throughput.

Ysio is available in a variety of configurations based on customers imaging needs: as a wall stand with an integrated detector, a wall stand and table system with a wireless detector, or even as a mixed detector solution for high throughput and flexibility.

"Ysio ushers in a new age of DR systems that are easy to use, easy to learn, and easy on the patient," said Claus Grill, vice president, Angiography, Cardiac, and X-ray Systems, Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. "The solution lightens user workload by simplifying today's radiographic routine and can be configured to the needs of customers with its wireless detector and intuitive control via an interactive color touch screen. For patients, Ysio offers convenience, as well as faster and less stressful exams when patient mobility is an issue."
