Canon announces new mobile X-ray system and high-end series of wireless digital radiography devices that contribute to advanced X-ray control and image generation

November 27, 2022
Otawara, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, November 27th 2022 -- Canon Medical Systems Corporation has today announced the release of two new Canon branded X-Ray products¹ into the US market – the Mobirex i9 mobile system, and the brand-new CXDI-Elite series of detectors to be shown at RSNA 2022.

In recent years, there has been growing need for DR devices that provide both ease of use in a variety of imaging scenarios as well as higher image quality to support greater diagnostic confidence. In addition, as such technology continues to evolve, there is a concerted effort to minimize patients’ radiation dosage.

With the aim of meeting the needs of this wide range of customers Canon has taken new steps in the mobile X-Ray space. The first brings the Mobirex i9. Incorporating a small footprint and compact design for easy mobility and maneuvering visibility as well as built in workflow tools, this allows fast positioning of the system in a wide variety of exams and locations.

The second giant step adds the CXDI-Elite series, bringing even greater performance and functionality to mobile exams. “The CXDI Elite series is Canon’s first digital X-ray imaging system to utilize built-in AEC Assistance² technology designed for general X-ray imaging. Adding this new technology to the Mobirex i9 provides users with a new combination of technologies for improved diagnostic confidence for mobile exams”,said Moin Hussaini, Director of the X-ray business unit at Canon Medical Systems USA. “With this proprietary technology, the device’s X-ray image sensor uses identical elements that are simultaneously capable of performing either image generation or real-time detection of the pixel value corresponding to emitted X-rays, notifying the X-ray generator when pixel value reaches a preset value. By providing such feedback, the technology helps enable greater control over X-ray dosage. Combining this new technology with the Mobirex i9 provides users with a fresh approach to mobile exams”.

In summary, the new Mobirex i9 supports high productivity, mobility, storage and positioning for a wide variety of point of care imaging environments, with a telescopic column & arm, fine positioning capabilities, and power assist technology, while the new cassette size CXDI-720C Wireless unit realizes superb basic functionality while delivering both high sensitivity and high image quality, as well as built-in support for X-ray dosage control, assisting medical professionals in their diagnostic work.
