SKS Hospital installs new FDA approved Pediatric studies detector

SKS Hospital, Salem installed Carestream India’s first DRX Plus 2530C Detector to be used alongwith their existing DRX Revolution mobile DR system in April 2022. 
The unique demands of pediatric imaging require a systemwide approach to guarantee high-quality imaging at the lowest possible patient exposure to the most sensitive patients.

 This critical challenge can be overcome by using Carestream’s DRX Plus 2530C higher resolution detector combined with an exceptional image processing software Image View used for post processing the images for further diagnosis. 

This newly designed small-format detector is made up of cesium iodide technology and which is extremely high in resolution, capable to capture the fine detail of smaller anatomical structures present in pediatric patients.Dr Suresh Viswanathan, Managing Director, SKS HOSPITAL & Postgraduate Medical Institute, added, “Our Radiologist has appreciated the excellent image quality achieved at the lowest dose. 

As an administrator I find being able to use the DRX Plus 2530C detector across all Carestream DRX products results in a quicker return on investment.”
