AXIOM Aristos FX PlusThe multifunctional FD imaging system

System highlights

Ceiling-mounted supports:

• Two fully motorized, ceiling-mounted supports for detector and X-ray tube

• Both ceiling-mounted supports provide free travel in 3 spatial and 2 rotational axes, and can be flexibly and auto-matically positioned via software control

• Smart Move: automatic positioning of the detector and X-ray tube to the

ideal location

• MIMIC Function: MIMIC function enables the detector to

automatically “imitate” the position of the X-ray tube and vice versa, while maintaining a constant tube-to-detector centering and SID. This provides fast and convenient system adjustments.

Patient table:

• Suspended at one end; height-adjustable; floating, removable

tabletop

Operation:

• Complete system operation with control of generator, system, and imaging system integrated in one console

• Fast and comfortable positioning with Smart Move

Image acquisition/detector:

• 43 cm x 43 cm flat detector with 9 million (3k x 3k) active pixels

• DiamondView – multi-scale post-processing method with higher

contrast detail and low noise level

Imaging station:

• High-performance PC with flat panel display and syngo user interface

• Automatic, optimal adjustment of generator and collimator parameters; image processing optimized for the exam selected

• Full DICOM compatibility

X-ray generator:

• High-frequency generators with automatic exposure control and

high-performance X-ray tube

ORTHO*

• Acquires up to four consecutive leg or spine exposures in a single acquisition process

Remote control*

• Conveniently control system movements via wireless remote control – eliminates unnecessary worksteps and improves patient care

* Option

AXIOM Aristos FX Plus is a multi-functional, ceiling-mounted FD imaging system for chest exposures as well as skeletal radiography of the skull, abdomen and extremities.

It combines intelligent mechanics with a high-resolution amorphous Silicon, digital flat detector (FD).

The ceiling-mounted supports can be freely positioned in the room, providing a high level of flexibility during all exams. This single X-ray system offers lateral and oblique exposures as well as trauma applications.

With the FX Plus pocket-size room option, it is possible to accommo-date the system in a smaller area.

The four main pillars of the AXIOM Aristos FX Plus concept are:

• Fast and easy handling

• Outstanding image quality

• Maximum radiation reduction

• Optimal networking

All with a single goal in mind: to optimize your workflow.

Ceiling-mounted supports

Smart Move is the motto of the AXIOM Aristos FX Plus:

From an engineering point of view, Smart Move means intelligently controlled movements. Organ programs automatically move the motorized detector and X-ray tube into the desired position. Two ceiling-mounted supports that can be freely positioned in the room make this flexibility possible. Thanks to the system’s mechanical range, lateral and oblique exposures, as well as emergency applications, are more convenient.
