controlled production of diagnostic images with X-rays. It includes the
X-ray Generator, the DirectRay Console, the Collimator as the beam
limiting device, and the DirectRay Detector as the image receptor. Digital
images can then be viewed, stored, or printed. The system provides a
digital image capture capability for conventional radiographic
examinations (excluding fluoroscopy, angiography, and mammography).
The system then transmits image data for hardcopy, soft display, or storage
via Ethernet using the Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine
(DICOM) 3.0 protocol.
