flashpad-feature-card-full-desktop
flashpad-feature-card-full-desktop

FlashPad Select digital detector

At 100 micron pixels, the FlashPad Select detector provides 4x higher resolution than 200 micron pixel detectors, helping to distinguish fine structures.

  • Exceptional dose efficiency with 73.4% DQE at 0 lp/mm.
  • Large size: 17 x 17 inch (43 x 43 cm) for excellent patient coverage.
  • Automatically connects wirelessly to registered systems with automatic channel switching to improve image transfer and avoid wireless interference.

GE HealthCare imaging chain

High-power tube and generator options enable imaging of all patient anatomies and patient types. They also provide the needed X-ray throughput without having to wait for the system to cool.

imaging-chain-feature-card-half-desktop
imaging-chain-feature-card-half-desktop

GE HealthCare imaging chain

The power of the X-ray generator determines how well the X-rays can penetrate the object to be imaged. Objects that are denser need a higher power X-ray generator so X-rays can penetrate through those objects. Without enough power image quality will be degraded. Definium Pace offers a generator with 50kW or 65kW nominal output and a tube heat dissipation capacity of 667 HU/s to meet your needs.

AutoGrid software

Like a physical grid, this software delivers contrast improvements that lead to shorter exams and fewer retakes. This results in a decrease in patient dose and an increase in department productivity.

autogrid-software-feature-half-desktop
autogrid-software-feature-half-desktop

AutoGrid software

Physical grids cost extra money, plus they can be lost or damaged. They also must be physically moved and attached by the technologist who must choose the appropriate grid based on imaging conditions. With AutoGrid, the technologist’s physical strain is removed from the imaging equation along with errors related to grid choice as the software knows the imaging conditions and selects the right grid.

Helix™ advanced image processing

Delivers outstanding clarity and extraordinary anatomical detail across image types with anatomy specific image enhancement.

Designed for peace of mind

The total cost of ownership (TCO) of a system can be highly influenced by how often the system is down, how long repairs take, and how much repairs or a service contract cost. This TCO is also influenced by how easy the system is to learn and use.

Trust in our rugged reliability

The first step in lowering the TCO of a system is to make it highly reliable by testing the durability of all parts and components, and providing a system that doesn’t break down often.
