At AHRA 2024, Agfa Radiology Solutions highlights intelligent technologies and systems that ensure “one shot is enough”

July 18, 2024 – At the AHRA (Association for Medical Imaging Management) Annual Meeting, Agfa Radiology Solutions will showcase how its solutions help customers meet the productivity needs of an industry struggling with staff shortages and tight budgets.

Agfa’s comprehensive portfolio supports the “Next Generation” in medical imaging, using intelligent and innovative technologies to ensure that every X-ray image counts. With accurate and high-quality diagnostic information from the first image taken, retakes are reduced, speeding up workflows and improving the experience of the radiologist, radiologist and patient.

“We understand the challenges our customers face in terms of staffing shortages and reduced budgets. Our productivity features and ‘one image is enough’ approach enable every X-ray professional to work more efficiently. Additionally, the DR 100 Essential and VALORY are designed to be budget-friendly, yet still offer all the essential features healthcare facilities need – including our renowned MUSICA image processing software. They demonstrate our commitment to offering solutions that ensure healthcare facilities never have to compromise on image quality, regardless of staffing or budget constraints,” says Bruce Romaglia, Vice President, North America, Agfa Radiology Solutions.

For a limited time, Agfa is offering the Productivity, Safety and Security package at no extra cost with the purchase of a DR 100s or DR 100s Essential mobile imaging solution or a VALORY ceiling-mounted or floor-mounted X-ray room.

The package includes:

• RFID Badge Login: Simply swipe your RFID-enabled badge for simplified access to the DR user interface, increasing security and efficiency.
• Positive patient identification: A quick scan of the barcode on the patient’s wristband confirms their identity – and the system can be prepared for exposure. True One Click workflow!
• SmartRotate™: This workflow aid always automatically presents an image ready for review. Reduced post-processing saves time, so the radiologist can focus on reading, not rotating.

The DR 100s package also includes:

• SmartAlign: Real-time assistance in aligning the lamp with the panel improves image quality and facilitates subsequent observation.

The VALORY package also includes:

• Dura-line Panel in Bucky Wall: This high-quality, fixed 17×17 panel offers a large field of view that easily accommodates all types of exams. It reduces maintenance and simplifies staff work for maximum productivity, while offering solid reliability, cost-effectiveness and dose reduction potential.

Visit our booth at AHRA 2024 and discover intelligent image processing and workflow technologies:

• MUSICA, which is standard in all Agfa DR and CR systems, automatically analyzes RAW image characteristics and optimizes processing parameters, regardless of body part or dose deviation. High image quality and low dose features have made MUSICA the “gold standard” in image processing for radiology departments worldwide.
• The SmartXR portfolio adds X-ray intelligence to Agfa DR solutions to provide image acquisition support and reduce radiologist workload. Predictive workflow support for dose, alignment, patient positioning, image rotation and more helps improve operational efficiency in image acquisition.
