• CR 30-X: The multi-application CR 30-X is a computer's desktop, compact and hassle-free CR solution which can be easy to install, utilize and maintain. The solution is perfect for decentralized environments.
• CR 35-X: The actual CR 35-X is a remarkably versatile digitizer that is specially engineered for decentralized CR surroundings and that has a tiny footprint.
• CR-85-X: The ‘do everything’ Customer care 85-X is a multi-user digitizer, featuring a exclusive 10 cassette drop-and-go buffer in which eliminates waiting periods and maximizes efficiency.

It fills the space in the current range of Electronic Radiography solutions, by providing an exceptional combination of image high quality, potential for dose lowering, speed and flexibility that will exceeds traditional Customer care solutions.

The original launch of the DX-S in August 2005 was a major landmark for Agfa HealthCare and also, alongside the company’s Customer care 30-X, CR 35-X and the multi-user Customer care 85-X, completed Agfa HealthCare’s CR collection, allowing it to deliver techniques that help meet the needs associated with facilities of any dimensions.
David Lee, Superintendent Radiographer with the Bristol Royal Infirmary, Bristol, UK, who's actively chosen Agfa HealthCare’s DX-S to satisfy the challenging imaging wants of trauma as well as orthopaedic cases, states: “We needed an exceptionally flexible Electronic digital Radiography solution enabling all of us to quickly and efficiently deal with the wide variety of situations we see. I’ve worked with a variety of products, but up to now none of them has proven as flexible or perhaps as suitable for our own requirements as Agfa HealthCare’s DX-S. The versatility means for instance that we can handle the most complicated as well as demanding polytrauma incident easily, and can then go on deal with an orthopaedic outpatient’s ‘standing knees’ obstacle.“
The Bremen Screening Product in Germany, which gives mammography screening services on the approximately 880,000 people in the Bremen region, decided on Agfa HealthCare’s CR 85-X to meet the specific challenging wants. Dr. Arno Krastel, Radiologist and System Manager, Bremen Screening System, states:“With its cassette barrier, the CR 85-X enables our technologists to work easily and efficiently, without having waiting times in the device. Images can be obtained quickly. This produces a streamlined exam work-flow and a high throughput. This too means that, as a testing unit, we can accomplish exams for many people, and work cost-effectively.”
Most Agfa HealthCare digitizers offer the user-friendly NX touch-screen interface user train station, the radiographer's image id and quality control application. They all seamlessly assimilate with PACS, RIS and HIS that will comply with current healthcare imaging standards. MUSICA2 ™, Agfa HealthCare’s newest intelligent and automatic digital radiography image running software, is now designed for the entire CR remedies range.
