Our X-Ray and photon counting detectors are designed to meet a broad spectrum of imaging applications in the industrial and security industries. Varex Imaging X-ray detectors prevent geometric distortion and minimize the effects of magnetic fields and radiation. The technology found in our detectors allows our customers to take full advantage of superior digital image quality and high throughput and CT capabilities. These detectors present a uniform, undistorted, high-resolution image throughout the field of view, enabling technicians to take images of the internal structures of objects such as electronic circuits and mechanical parts.

CBCT Software – Varex Imaging, a leading supplier of flat panel x-ray detectors used for 2D and 3D imaging, provides a companion image processing library with correction algorithms that are physics-based corrections and both Feldkamp and Statistical CBCT reconstruction in an easy-to-use software toolkit: CBCT Software Tools, or CST for short.
CST comprises a suite of Windows-based software libraries that enables OEMs to quickly develop software that produces high-quality 2D images or 3D reconstructions for industrial applications. Scattered radiation from the part, room, and detector impacts the achievable image fidelity as contrast is reduced, and resolution is degraded. CST has scatter correction algorithms, 2D and 3D VSharp™, as well as a machine learning-based, scatter algorithm that significantly improves image quality in radiography and reconstructed images at industrial x-ray energies. In addition, a multi-material beam hardening algorithm reduces the cupping artifact seen in 3D reconstructed images and improves CT number uniformity. And REA, our resolution enhancement algorithm, removes the impact of scintillator light spread, producing crisper, higher resolution images.
Our tomographic reconstruction software encapsulates individual processing steps into separate plugins. Thus, a host application can use any or all of the plugins provided. At the heart of our cone beam imaging software is the Image Processing Pipeline for simplified integration with parameters stored in standard XML files. This library manages the available plugins and acts as the single interface between an OEM host application and the CST plugins.
Image Processing Pipeline Library Features
• A stable, easy to use API supporting both .NET and C++ host applications
• Over 25 Years, Varex Imaging supplied image processing plugins.
• Supports different panels, geometries, and scan types
• Supports simultaneous acquisition and reconstruction processing

Varex Industrial Sub-systems providing engineered solutions for industrial applications. Combining market-leading components to create sub-systems optimized to the users’ needs. These subsystems are verified and tested before delivery ensuring maximum reliability out-of-the box.
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.
