Choosing the appropriate Veterinary Digital Radiology System to fit your practice (DR flat panel, DR CCD System or CR System) Purchasing a digital radiography system can be a daunting task. Considerations such as service and support, detector technology, image quality, software functionality, PACS, DICOM, backup and practice management integration are topics that must be considered at some point in your digital modality purchase. The trick is to avoid becoming overwhelmed and to evaluate each digital modality in a systematic approach. In my many years of dealing with a wide array of veterinarians imaging needs (34 years) I have learned the starting point for any imaging purchase discussion is which type of technology is appropriate for your practices. In this case we are talking about Digital imaging systems. The three types of detector technology are computed radiography [CR] direct digital radiography [DR] which includes Flat panel and [CCD] type systems.

Determining which system is right for your practice. The digital imaging modality you choose will be based on how these 10 factors will affect your practice and how much weight or value you place on each one. 1). Practice type 2). Cost vs. value 3). Image quality 4). Service contract costs 5). Longevity of the system 6). Is an X-ray machine also needed to be purchased? 7). Service record of equipment provider 8). Digital imaging expertise of equipment provider in veterinary medicine 9). Software integration, Dicom, Pacs capable, support costs with internet support 10). Warranties

Is CR the right choice for your practice? CR uses imaging plates to generate a digital image. These imaging plates are placed in a CR reader which generates a digital image. The workflow has a similar feel to film-based systems. Despite claims made by some DR vendors, veterinarians choosing CR will see a degree of time savings and increased efficiency in radiology over film based systems. The image quality from CR systems is equal to or superior to many DR systems. It is my opinion that for pocket pets and exotics, CR systems may perform better than many DR systems. CR is a mature, secure technology, There are more CR systems installed and in use than any other digital technology. Similar CR systems are used in the human medicine with only a change in software. One side benefit of purchasing this technology is guaranteed support of the software and hardware-for at least seven years-even if the manufacturer stops supporting the product (as the parts available.)

CR provides many benefits at a lower cost than any of the DR systems. These quality CR systems can be installed for around $30,000. This mature, secure technology with high grade image quality is the easy choice for any veterinary practice, particularly if you want to use your existing x-ray machine. CR systems are sold by many different types of suppliers, national veterinary distributors, catalog houses and local x-ray dealers. My experience and the experience of many of our veterinarian friends are, when purchasing a CR system, the support provided by the equipment provider and the knowledge they have obtained from many years of Veterinary imaging expertise is just as important as the CR system that is purchased. A couple of questions to ask your equipment provider: is a hot swap warranty provided at no additional charge; do you provide toll-free unlimited software support?
If you have decided CR is not the right choice for your practice you have two other digital imaging systems to select from.

Is a CCD type DR system the right choice for your practice?
Also Available
DR flat panel and CCD digital systems have the feel of a digital camera. As soon as you take the shot, the image appears on the screen after a short processing time. The main benefit of DR is the speed of image generation and the potential for increased throughput through the radiology room. There are two competing types of DR systems in the veterinary market: [CCD] type systems and selenium or silicon flat-panel detectors [FPD]. There are two types of CCD systems, single-camera CCD box system and the multi-CCD flat panel detector. CCD type DR systems are the most economical of any veterinary DR system. The image quality of CCD systems is good, but requires an increase in dose over flat panel DR systems. In the past, many veterinarians in the market for a complete digital system have purchased CCD type digital radiography systems. These veterinarians find CCD attractive because most CCD had been sold as a CCD type box system's complete low-cost popularity has waned system. CCD in favor of the multicombination ccd flat panel detectors. However, systems are just a with the price bit more expensive reductions in true DR than a CR system. Flat Panel silicon/ silineum systems, CCD in general is losing favor.
5
1.800.346.9729 www.VetXray.com
CCD systems are sold through national x-ray dealers and national veterinary product venders. Historically, the long-term costs of a CCD system may have been less than a flat-panel DR because these CCD systems are sold with lower cost service contracts when compared to DR Flat Panel. As with all digital systems, who you purchase your system from is just as important as the system you purchase. Be sure you are buying from a company, like DIS with a proven 31 year proven track record of performance. Other companies selling CCD systems seem to come and go.
Is a Flat Panel DR system the right choice for your practice?
Also Available
Flat-panel DR is the type of DR system most commonly found in human hospitals and large veterinary institutions. The image quality from flat-panel DR systems varies between vendors but is generally considered to be of high quality throughout this class of detector.
Flat-panel detectors are easily retrofit into existing x-ray tables. DR wireless systems are the system of choice for mixed animal or large animal veterinarians. Flat-panel detectors have been out of the price range of most veterinarians. Recently, however, we have seen an influx of new panels on the market, both wireless and tethered, and the price likely will soon rival many CCD-based systems. Historically, veterinarians considering flat panel DR had to consider the long-term costs of ownership because many of these panels have had a five to ten year decreasing quality life span and may have required expensive service contracts. The new generation of DR systems have proven themselves to be very reliable and in some cases a more cost-effective alternative than CR digital. The service contract is strongly recommended with portable/non-table flat panel DR systems which are exposed to temperature variations and transportaion vigors. After the warranty, without a service contract you will be out of luck and may need to purchase a new detector if a severe problem exists with the system..
If you have decided a CCD type DR system is not the right choice for your practice, you have one other digital imaging system to select from.

Flat panel DR systems are sold by many different types of suppliers, national veterinary distributors, catalog houses and local x-ray dealers. As I have recommended previously, my experience and the experience of many of our veterinarian friends are, when purchasing any digital system, the support provided by the equipment provider and the knowledge they have obtained from many years of veterinary imaging expertise is just as important as the digital system that is purchased. DIS has a proven 32 year track record of providing excellent service after the sale.

Performance and Satisfaction of a Digital Radiography System In 2014, Diagnostic Imaging Systems, Inc. became the first Veterinary healthcare supplier to ship and install the new Wireless DR Wizard, an advanced digital radiography system. Now almost a year later and 100 system installations the overall impact of the newly installed Wired and Wireless DR Wizard systems performance and user satisfaction has became evident to DIS in more ways than one: 1. Flexible positioning for Small and Large Animal comfort: The woes of patients and technologists due to limited machine flexibility in complex x-ray exams are over. The DR Wizard detector allows free-position studies like cross-table lateral hips, knee-joint axial, cubital joint lateral, etc. The DR WIZARD detector can be used in any common table top or in table cassette cabinet for supine exams and easily moved from the table for field mobile exams. The new ALL-IN-ONE table system has allowed technicians to place small animal patients on the mobile table and position them comfortably and large animal patients with the use of the table mounted detachable Portable x-ray unit mobile stand in the field and with no cords to worry about. The technologists can also relocate the mobile All-In-One table to any room in the facility to accommodate emergency and surgery patients conveniently. 2. Immediate image preview: The patient exam time has been reduced with the availability of image preview within five seconds and a complete image within 7 seconds, giving Veterinarians the ability to offer immediate diagnosis. 3. Advanced software display feature cuts down repeat exams: Technologists have the ability to view exams, change image view parameters while previewing images on a monitor screen mounted on table mounted monitor arm. This allows the technologists to select x-ray procedure parameters while comforting the patient at the table side. From there the technologists can confirm whether the image has been properly acquired for saving or if a repeat exam is needed. This saves time, cuts down on repeat exams and can lower technologist and patient exposure to radiation dose. Thanks to the DR WIZARD and the NEW All-In-One table system the imaging exam time has been reduced from five minutes to 5 seconds, leading to a decrease in patient exam time and improved doctor satisfaction. It has also precipitated the facilities ability to accommodate future growth opportunities. The reduced imaging time, superior image quality and ease-of-use has enabled Veterinarians to conduct 50 percent more x-ray examinations than what was possible before the installation of the DR WIZARD system, giving a much-needed productivity boost.
