The Axiom Luminos dRF can both visualize dynamic processes in the body – for example swallowing in the esophagus – and produce static radiographs. Instead of a conventional image intensifier and cassette, the system works with a dynamic flat detector, which digitally acquires the image data for both fluoroscopic and radiographic acquisitions. With an area of 43 x 43 centimeters, the flat detector offers almost 50 percent greater coverage than an image intensifier with a diameter of 40 centimeters. Increased coverage means fewer acquisitions are required to image the relevant anatomical region.
