The AeroDR Digital Radiology solutions are being configured with Shimadzu radiographic systems, all provided by Konica Minolta’s dealer Medical Imaging Systems, Inc.

“AeroDR is a reliable, easy-to-use and economical solution designed to meet the needs of both hospitals and the outpatient or alternate care markets,” says Guillermo Sander, Senior Strategic Marketing Manager, Konica Minolta Medical Imaging. “AeroDR is durable and features a rapid recharge, long-life lithium ion capacitor, making it an ideal solution for portable or mobile imaging that is typically found in alternate care.  With AeroDR, RMG will be able to increase throughput, and provide physicians and referrers with excellent image quality.”  The first installation occurred at the practice’s Auburn, MA site.

As a leader in Primary Imaging Solutions, Konica Minolta is dedicated to delivering next generation systems to hospitals, group practices, outpatient imaging centers, and alternate care clinics.
