Q1: What is the weight of the XR-701 X-ray generator, and is it truly handheld?
A: Yes, it is truly handheld. The main X-ray generator unit is incredibly lightweight, weighing only 3.5 kg (approximately 7.7 lbs). This makes it easy for a single operator to carry and position for various imaging procedures without fatigue.
Q2: How many X-ray images can I take on a single battery charge?
A: The integrated high-capacity battery is very efficient. On a full charge, you can take more than 200 exposures at full power settings, which is sufficient for a full day's use in most clinical or field settings.
Q3: What is the image quality like compared to a larger, stationary X-ray system?
A: The XR-701 is designed for diagnostic-quality images. It features a 0.4mm fine focal spot and a high-resolution 17" wireless flat panel detector (3072 x 3072 pixels). This combination ensures high-resolution images with excellent detail, suitable for diagnosing fractures in limbs, the chest, and other areas. While not replacing a high-power stationary system for all procedures, it provides exceptional quality for its portable class.
Q4: Is this system suitable for veterinary use?
A: Absolutely. The XR-701 is an excellent solution for veterinary clinics and animal husbandry. It includes dedicated Human and Veterinary photography modes optimized for different anatomies. Its portability is perfect for imaging pets, livestock, and horses without the need to move the animal to a dedicated room.
Q5: How does the XR-701 ensure safety for the operator and the patient?
A: Safety is a top priority. The system features multiple safety advantages:
Low Dose Technology: Minimizes radiation output while maintaining image quality.
Wireless Remote Switch: Allows the operator to step away to a safe distance before initiating an exposure.
Laser Guidance: Precisely targets the area of interest, reducing the need for retakes and unnecessary exposure.
