The Varex Imaging XRpad 4343 F MED is a lightweight, cassette-sized flat panel detector for digital radiography. It fits into a conventional table or wall-stand bucky, just like a film-screen cassette. Featuring a 18.7 million pixel image matrix, a best-in-class 100 um pixel pitch, and a direct deposited CsI scintillator, the XRpad 4343 F MED provides exceptional image quality with a true 43 cm × 43 cm imaging area. A robust and lightweight aluminum frame with carbon-fiber entrance window allows for easier placement and cleaning. Automatic Exposure Detection simplifies integration.
An electrically-powered, cassette-like device intended to be used as part of an x-ray system to detect x-ray images following exposure, and create a digital signal; it is not dedicated to imaging of a specific anatomy. It includes two types of transducing technology (i.e., indirect): a scintillator [e.g. caesium iodide (CsI)] screen converts x-ray energy into light, followed by the conversion of light into a digital signal by photodiode array. The image data can be sent to an appropriate processing unit through a wired or wireless connection (e.g., Wi-Fi). It may be used in place of a fixed detector in x-ray imaging systems, e.g., as part of a digital imaging conversion system.
