Digital X-ray system DR 600

for multipurpose radiographywith floor-standing buckywith ceiling-suspended bucky

Overview
The DR 600 is a ceiling‑suspended, integrated direct radiography (DR) system designed for digital X‑ray rooms that require automated positioning, detector sharing and flexible exam workflows. It combines MUSICA™ image processing, SmartXR™ AI assistance and ergonomic hardware to support reliable, dose‑aware imaging.

Key benefits

• Image processing with MUSICA™ for consistent image appearance and workflow integration.
• Configurable for single‑ or multi‑detector rooms to suit throughput and resource sharing.
• Automation features (auto‑positioning, auto‑tracking) to streamline examination sequences.
• ZeroForce™ technology and SmartGrip™ for low‑effort manual adjustments and intuitive tube handling.
• EasyStitch™ capability for full‑leg and full‑spine acquisitions (standing and recumbent).
• LiveVision™ for dose‑free remote positioning to improve setup accuracy.

Features and workflow enhancements

• SmartXR™ Assistant modules (SmartAlign™, SmartPositioning™, SmartDose™, SmartRotate™) provide predictive guidance and help standardize positioning.
• Detector sharing workflow supports operational flexibility across multiple rooms.
• Support for digital tomosynthesis as an optional imaging mode for additional diagnostic detail.
• Height‑adjustable table, rotating Bucky and vertical/angular tracking to accommodate a wide range of exams.

Digital tomosynthesis
Digital tomosynthesis is available as an option to reveal anatomical details not visible on standard radiographs and can be performed without relocating the patient within the X‑ray department.

Detectors and dose considerations
Dura‑line™ Cesium Iodide (CsI) detectors offer detector sharing, extended battery autonomy and ergonomic handling. In combination with MUSICA™ processing, CsI detectors have shown potential for significant patient dose reduction compared with certain CR systems.

Automation & usability
Full automation, ZeroForce™ motion control and SmartGrip™ capacitive sensors reduce physical effort and support rapid, reproducible positioning. LiveVision™ enables precise, radiation‑free remote alignment before exposure.

Clinical & operational value
The combination of MUSICA™, SmartXR™ AI and automation reduces variability, supports dose optimization and increases throughput — lowering repeat rates and improving resource utilization in busy imaging departments.
