Fluoroscopy

Fluoroscopy is a continuous X-ray image displayed on a monitor, allowing for real-time monitoring of a procedure or passage of a contrast agent (“dye”) through the body. Fluoroscopy is used in mobile surgical C-arms and fixed systems for cardiac angiography, neuro angiography, and interventional vascular radiography. In addition, fluoroscopy is used where real-time examination of the patient’s body is required.
Some examples include:
• Barium X-ray and enemas to view the gastrointestinal tract
• Catheter insertion and manipulation
• Placement of devices within the body such as stents
• Angiograms
• Orthopedic surgery
At Varex Imaging, we offer a variety of high-performing fluoroscopy X-ray tubes to produce high-quality images. In addition, we have the solution you need for your dynamic imaging needs with a high-speed rotor design and various focal spot sizes.
Varex Imaging was among the first companies to bring to market X-ray detectors capable of real-time fluoroscopic imaging. Our fluoroscopic X-Ray detectors feature complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. Advanced CMOS image sensor technology features include low noise, high speed, high resolution, compact form factor, and low image lag. In addition, CMOS technology enables system manufacturers the ability to produce more efficient fluoroscopy systems.
For fluoroscopy software, Varex Imaging offers Nexus® DRF. A powerful multi-purpose digital imaging system, Nexus® DRF combines R&F and DR capabilities on one imaging platform using the Varex Imaging X-ray detector.
Nexus® DRF brings Varex Imaging’s years of experience in digital imaging technology together with Varex Imaging’s unrivaled X-ray detectors technology to provide a system that is an actual value add for your R&F imaging needs.
To complete your DRF system, Varex Imaging offers high voltage connectors, collimators, bucky systems, and AEC sensors.
