The new open cabin includes a motorized, enlarged patient platform to accommodate a broader range of patients, EOS said. Flex Dose modulates radiation dose along the patient's body, while the high-resolution photon-counting detecting technology is designed to provide optimal image quality for musculoskeletal radiography, according to the vendor.
The EOSedge unit was installed earlier this year at the Imagerie Médicale du Créqui in Lyon, France. The company noted that it will also continue to offer its first-generation system.
