Fujifilm's FDR D-EVO DR detectors are available in Gadolinium and Cesium models, so you can select the right detector to fit the exam every time. Sizes include: 24x30cm Csl, 14x17 and 17x17.

 

Fujifilm's premium CsI detectors combine the inherent dose efficiency benefits of cesium with Fujifilm's patented ISS technology to deliver ultra-sharp images with increased detail and low noise. While, Fujifilm's standard, lightweight gadolinium detectors are lightweight, highly durable and cost-effective. Using Fujifilm's proprietary ISS technology, FDR D-EVO GOS digital detectors offer exceptional images with high DQE that compares to the performance of conventional cesium detectors.

 

FDR D-EVO flat panel detectors easily convert your existing x-ray equipment to DR, allowing you to continue performing everything from routine upright and table exams to cross table, and just about any free positioning exam, with ease.
