KDR Advanced U-arm System
High-Performance Digital Radiography: Experience Unmatched Efficiency and Image Clarity in a Compact Design.
When you need faster clinical answers to vital health questions, the KDR® Advanced U-arm System delivers. This state-of-the-art digital radiography solution combines advanced design innovations with a compact footprint, making it the ideal choice for hospitals and clinics looking to optimize workflow, increase staff productivity, and improve patient outcomes.
Key Benefits of the KDR Advanced U-Arm System
Superior Image Quality for Confident Diagnoses
Reach a diagnosis faster with high-definition imaging. Our 17”x17” Cesium Iodide (CsI) detector provides exceptional visualization of both bone and soft tissue from a single exposure.
- Constant Alignment: The system ensures the X-ray tube and DR panel remain perfectly aligned regardless of the swivel arm tilt or panel angle.
- DDR-Ready: Upgradeable to Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) to view anatomical motion in real-time.
Space-Saving Design for Small Imaging Suites
The KDR Advanced U-Arm is the perfect fit for facilities with limited space.
- Low Ceiling Compatibility: The flexible floor-mounted system accommodates ceilings as low as 8 feet, maximizing your existing office square footage.
- Small Form Factor: The streamlined detector design allows for better head-end and foot-end access, simplifying patient positioning.
Optimized Patient Care and Workflow
Minimize exam times and increase patient comfort with automated positioning.
- Auto-Swivel Technology: The system automatically moves to predetermined positions based on exam info, saving valuable time.
- 3-Second Image Review: Images are captured and displayed for on-screen review in under three seconds, allowing for immediate approval and faster patient turnover.
- Precise Control: Effortlessly transition from PA to Lateral positions without moving the patient.
Advanced Technical Features
- Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR): Enhance your clinical capabilities with X-ray in motion.
- ULTRA Acquisition Software: Seamlessly enhances images for maximum clarity.
- Tube-Mounted Interface: Confirm patient data and review images at the point of care.
- Automatic Stitching: Optional features for long-bone and full-spine imaging.
The KDR® Advanced U-Arm System offers superior-quality radiography in relatively small spaces.
The flexible floor-mounted system accommodates 8’ ceilings, maximizing every square foot of office space and improving positioning capabilities. It uses a small form factor detector for head-end and foot-end access, simplifying anatomy positioning by placing the patient in front or behind the detector to optimize positioning.
- The floor-to-wall-mounted main column supports vertical movement with a dual-speed, motorized swivel arm.
-
The swivel arm features a 135˚ range of motion with detents at 0˚, 30˚, 90˚ and 120˚, plus 39” of vertical arm movement.
- Tube mounted interface control
- An advanced collimator employs a linear laser beam with light field indicator and three-knob manual control to optimize patient positioning.
- A 440 lb. capacity mobile patient table comes standard with every U-Arm DR system.
- Detector side control.
- Multi-purpose patient positioning indicator.
