FIDEX

Fidex is a unique three-modality diagnostic imaging system designed specifically for companion animal veterinary practice and research laboratories. Fidex combines into a single machine: computed tomography (CT), digital radiography (DR), and fluoroscopy. Fidex can also be configured as a one-, or two-modality system. Fidex’s combination of these modalities into one machine conserves valuable space and financial resources, as well as energy and other operational expenses, thus making the clinical and economic advantages of in-house CT capability vastly more achievable.

Fidex ‘Basic’ system includes:

Cone-beam CT
Small-field (13 cm x 13 cm) DR
Scout view/drag-and-drop positioning software
Computer-controlled patient table
Scan-control computer/diagnostic computer
Reconstruction and visualization software
Volume rendering software
DICOM software

Fidex +LDR system includes:

All features included with Basic system
11” x 17” Varian 4336 DR panel
Automatic DR panel placement
Foot pedal exposure trigger
Fidex +Fluoro system includes:
All features included with Basic system
Automated or manual angulation control
Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) software
Foot pedal exposure trigger
