Carestream DRX-LC Detector

CARESTREAM DRX-LC DETECTOR

DRX-LC Detector

Faster Long-Length Exams – with a Single Exposure.

Capturing high-quality long-length images of the legs or spine can be challenging—especially for pediatric or limited-mobility patients who struggle to remain still. The DRX-LC Detector’s single-exposure capture simplifies these exams, improving speed, care, and confidence.

Designed to help you:

  • Streamline workflow – Reduce exam time with efficient, single-shot imaging—no multi-shot steps required
  • Capture complete anatomy – Deliver full-length images in a single exposure with uniform clarity—no alignment challenges or stitching artifacts
  • Optimize dose – Minimize repeats and reduce patient exposure
  • Enhance diagnostic confidence – Deliver exceptional detail, contrast, and image clarity
  • Maximize your investment – One detector delivers versatility across exams, positions, and care settings

Simplified Workflow

One Shot. Streamlined Workflow.

Single-shot long-length imaging eliminates the complexity of multi-exposure exams. With the DRX-LC, the entire anatomy is captured in one exposure with no stitching, no alignment adjustments, and no corrective post-processing.

Technologists can view the full field before acquisition, enabling confident positioning, precise collimation, and accurate ruler placement.

  • Full anatomy captured in one exposure
  • No stitching or alignment corrections required
  • Faster exams from setup to completion

Improved Patient Experience

Faster Exams. Better Care.

Shorter exam times help reduce the burden on patients, especially those who have difficulty remaining still. This is particularly valuable for pediatric and motion-prone patients.

By reducing retakes caused by motion, the DRX-LC also helps lower total radiation exposure while delivering a smoother imaging experience.

  • Reduced time holding still
  • Fewer motion-related retakes
  • More comfortable patient experience

Imaging Excellence

Capture More. See More. Trust More.

Large Field of View

The 17 by 48-inch field of view allows complete anatomy capture in a single image, reducing positioning complexity and helping ensure critical anatomy is not missed

Consistent Image Quality

A single unified exposure ensures uniform brightness, contrast, and geometry across the image, eliminating stitching artifacts and inconsistencies.

Advanced CsI Performance

The CsI scintillator delivers high DQE and MTF for exceptional detail, clarity, and contrast, enabling confident diagnosis at lower dose levels.

Smart Noise Cancellation (SNC)

Smarter Imaging. Clearer Results.

Unlock a new level of image clarity with AI-powered noise reduction.

SNC uses advanced deep learning algorithms to improve diagnostic quality while preserving fine detail, even at clinically nominal or reduced dose levels.

Key Benefits:

  • Improves diagnostic clarity and ease of reading
  • Preserves fine detail and enhances contrast-to-noise ratio
  • Supports dose reduction without sacrificing image quality
  • No additional technologist steps required
  • Works across patient sizes, anatomies, and projections

Detector Exposure Control (DEC)

Consistent Exposure. Anywhere.

DEC redefines automatic exposure control by integrating it directly into the detector, enabling consistent image quality without traditional AEC constraints.

Sensors within the detector measure incoming exposure and automatically stop the X-ray once optimal levels are reached.

Key Benefits:

  • Consistent image quality across patients and anatomies
  • Automatically optimized exposure for every image
  • Reduces risk of over- and underexposure
  • Supports improved diagnostic confidence
  • Reduces manual setup and technologist variability
  • Enables efficient, long-length workflow anywhere
