The Radlink CR Pro system is a computed radiography system designed for all primary diagnostic radiology applications. It is fully automatic and accepts a variety of cassette sizes.The 16-bit sealed fiber-optic laser technology allows images to be erased after each use, prolonging cassette life. The system includes the Radlink PACS that is DICOM compatible with any other PACS/EMR brand. The software provides image quality control and post-processing functions and enables distribution and routing of DICOM images throughout a healthcare network. Existing patient information can be queried by syncing to any EMR/HIS/RIS modality worklist.
A device/device assembly designed to be used with an analogue x-ray system to capture radiographic images and then generate digital x-ray images from them as part of a two-step process (computed radiography) for image viewing, storage, or hard-copy printing; it is not dedicated to dental use. It consists of an image reader/scanner and may also include an exposure unit with imaging receptor (e.g., a cassette containing a plate), or additional supportive hardware (e.g., a printer). The image is acquired on a photostimulatable substance (e.g., a phosphor screen mounted on a cassette plate) and converted into an electrical analogue signal in a laser scanner.
