AXIOM Luminos dRF
Remote-controlled fluoroscopy and radiography system with flat detector (FD)
AXIOM Luminos dRF is a highly versatile
radiography and fluoroscopy system with
dynamic flat detector (FD) technology.
The four main pillars of the AXIOM
concept are:
Easy handling
Outstanding image quality
Maximum radiation reduction
Optimal networking
The integrated flat detector makes this
system the universal digital solution for
improved workflows during fluoroscopy
and radioscopy examinations as well as
optimized networking capabilities for
documentation and integration into
the clinical environment.
The innovative design of the AXIOM
Luminos dRF offers a variable table
height and excellent access to the
patient, even from the rear of the
system, for more comfort for both
user and patient.
Thanks to the high load capacity of the
table and robust x-ray tube, the large
field of view on the FD and the excellent
dose-reducing functions, the system
can be used for a wide range of patient
types.
For better utilization of the fluoroscopy
system, FD technology can fully unite
digital fluoroscopy and digital radio-
graphy in one room.
