EXTRON 5
EXTRON 5 is a versatile mobile C-arm X-ray system designed to deliver balanced imaging performance, low-dose imaging, and efficient operation across a range of procedures.
The system combines a 4.8 kW generator, rotating-anode X-ray tube, IGZO flat panel detector technology, real-time noise reduction, flexible C-arm positioning, and workflow-focused controls. EXTRON 5 incorporates DRTECH’s TRUDIGITAL architecture with TRUImage, TRUDose, and TRUMOTION technologies to support image quality, dose management, and usability.
TRUImage
High Resolution Imaging
TRUImage combines flat panel detector technology and image-processing functions designed to provide clear digital imaging.
FPD Large FOV
EXTRON supports large-field flat panel detector configurations, including 23 × 23 cm and 30 × 30 cm detector options.
RNR — Real-Time Noise Reduction
Real-time noise reduction improves image clarity by reducing image noise during imaging. Manufacturer material reports up to 30% higher SNR with RNR.
Needle Enhancement
Image-processing functionality enhances visualization of needles during applicable procedures.
Metal Detection
Image-processing functionality supports imaging in the presence of metal.
Flat panel detector technology also provides distortion-free digital imaging compared with conventional image-intensifier-based imaging.
Key Features
