New Product:

Shad-o-Box 3028HS - Industry's Largest CMOS Dynamic Flat X-Ray Detector: With a 30x28cm (12"x11") field-of-view, 100um pixel resolution and the capability to output 14-bit images at 30fps over a CameraLink (Full) interface, the Shad-o-Box 3028HS detector is designed to meet the imaging requirements of the most demanding X-ray applications. Featuring low-noise readout and high X-ray sensitivity, the remarkable Noise Equivalent Dose performance of this detector allows it to detect the most delicate of features.

Featured Products:

Xineos™-1313 - CMOS Dynamic Flat X-ray Detectors for Fluoroscopy and Cone Beam CT: Delivering superior low-dose DQE at 45fps and 100um resolution, Xineos is the industry's first dynamic flat X-ray detector to exceed image intensifier diagnostic image quality performance. With saturation dose choices optimized for various clinical applications and featuring Gigabit Ethernet or high-speed Camera Link connectivity, Xineos also supports lag-free 300fps vertical ROI readout to power frame-based dental panoramic X-ray applications.

Argus™ - High Resolution Digital Mammography and Cephalometric Scanning detector:  Introducing the industry's most cost-effective CCD/TDI X-ray imaging module. Argus provides high resolution and greatly improved DQE for medical applications. With advanced scintillator technology, easy Ethernet connectivity and extremely low noise operation, Argus provides up to 80dB of dynamic range. The Argus family is easily integrated into existing imaging systems thanks to its latest software and imaging tools.

Helios™10 MD - Portable CMOS Flat X-ray Detector: Offering superior resolution of 5.2lp/mm, large 20x25cm (8"x10") active image area in a lightweight and portable package, Helios 10 features state-of-the-art Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to laptops or PCs. Helios10 is designed to meet the rigorous imaging requirements for a wide variety of medical applications such as pediatric radiology, tissue biopsy, full-field mammography, general radiography, bone densitometry, and other mobile digital radiography (DR) applications.

"As more markets adopt 3D volume reconstruction techniques, we expect an increased demand for high-resolution dynamic flat X‑ray detectors. Our CMOS technology offers uncompromised image quality at lower dose levels," said Yves Kessener, Senior Product Manager at Teledyne DALSA in Eindhoven. "The Shad-o-Box 3028HS detector offers an extended field-of-view compared to previously available CMOS-detectors, while maintaining leading Noise Equivalent Dose performance. It's quite rewarding to see customers pushing their imaging expectations when using our dynamic CMOS X-ray detectors; they are really reshaping the rules of their game."
