The Kodak POC CR series offer flexibility and economy in a highly compact design that can be used wherever space is at a premium. "POC" in this case is short for Kodak Point-Of-Care, which means that the equipment can be used wherever it is needed. This makes the Kodak POC CR ideal for use in patient hospital rooms, the emergency room, examination room - any place where a user-friendly, portable and reliable method of imaging is needed.

What It Is - How It Works

Kodak POC Computed Radiography (CR) units consist of the laser scanner (CR reader), phosphor imaging plates and the necessary software. The imaging plate is positioned beneath the patient where the x-ray image is to be made, then is fed into the scanner where it can be processed, stored and viewed in digital format. The image can also be loaded to a Kodak PACS (Picture Archive and Communication System) where the image can be enhanced and/or enlarged.

The Kodak Point-Of-Care Advantage

Beyond flexibility and portability, the Kodak Point-Of-Care CR Unit (which is bundled with the Kodak PACS) means there is no need for toxic chemicals or dark room facilities; additionally, the institution or clinic saves on storage space, since these x-ray images are digitized and can be stored on disk, DVD or a server. The Kodak POC CR also saves a great amount of time; images are complete and ready to upload to the Kodak pacs in as little as 15 seconds. mobile app development packages
