Intended Use

The Swissray Telleray AG Digital Add-on Bucky system is a high resolution, digital imaging system designed for Digital Photofluorography. It is intended to replace conventional film techniques in multipurpose or dedicated applications where general Radiography and fluoroscopy procedures are performed. The Digital Add-on Bucky is intended for applying general radiography on a patient in a supine, seated, or standing position including tomography examinations. The Digital Add-on Bucky system allows the operator to view and enhance the images. Images may be viewed and enhanced enabling the operator to bring out diagnostic details difficult or impossible to see using conventional imaging techniques. The Add-on Bucky system enables the operator to hardcopy images with a laser printer. The major system components include: a CCD camera, monitors and an image processor.
