X-Ray Film Digitizer for Mammography CAD


The CAD PRO Advantage film digitizer has been specifically designed for mammography CAD. Mammography CAD systems incorporate advanced pattern recognition and image analysis capabilities designed to aid in the detection of subtle signs of breast cancer. These systems enable radiologists to improve their ability to detect early stage cancers in an efficient manner. A key component of these CAD systems is a high performance film digitizer that meets the highest standards of image quality and reliability.

VIDAR has filed three patents related to its CAD PRO Advantage technology. Each of these patents applies to critical product attributes such as image quality, reliability, and system throughput. Additionally, VIDAR's ADC™ (Automatic Digitizer Calibration) prompts the film digitizer to calibrate automatically before every film digitized. Therefore, user intervention is not needed for this operation.

The CAD PRO Advantage offers a modular 50-sheet film feeder. The advanced design of VIDAR's SmartFeeder eliminates film jams, double feeds, and film pick-up problems that occur with other digitizers. Most importantly, the CAD PRO Advantage feeder is designed for continuous case loading. This feature allows the user to add cases without interrupting the digitizing process. In addition, the CAD PRO Advantage is able to digitize a four-film case in less than 120 seconds — twice the speed of most other digitizers on the market.

For PACS & Remote Primary Diagnosis


VIDAR's DiagnosticPRO Advantage film digitizer has achieved the highest reliability, image quality, consistency, and best overall productivity of any digitizer on the market.

With a MTBF of more than 50,000 hours, excellent image quality, exceptional consistency, and increased speed, the DiagnosticPRO Advantage provides customers with increased "up-time," resulting in improved productivity and revenues. In addition to a higher level of image quality and more consistency, the DiagnosticPRO Advantage has been designed for increased speed. It digitizes films two times faster than previous models and will digitize up to 25 mixed-sized films in batch mode, increasing productivity and improving efficiency — key benefits for radiology department personnel.

X-Ray Film Digitizer for Film Dosimetry and IMRT


VIDAR's DosimetryPRO Advantage offers the only digitizer with a 32-bit data path that outputs 16 bits of grayscale data. Use of the VIDAR DosimetryPRO Advantage, with 65,536 shades of gray, provides significantly more information in the prenumbral regions. This means that dose levels to adjacent tissues can be more accurately measured. It also means that leaf leakage in MLC (Multi-Leaf Collimator) systems are easier to measure. Greater dose accuracy for complex fields used in IMRT (intensity modulation radiation therapy) and Dynamic Therapies results in greater confidence in the delivered dose.

Customer Benefits


Self-calibrating before every film digitized, Superior reproducibility, Highest reliability for maximum "uptime". Designed to meet exacting needs of radiation physicists and oncologists

SIERRA plus

For Teleradiology & Remote Primary Diagnosis


The award-winning SIERRA plus film digitizer, designed for low-volume radiology applications, represents a significant advance in film digitizer technology. It overcomes some of the most common barriers to digitizer use — quality, cost, and size. The ACR-compliant SIERRA plus is the lowest cost digitizer for remote primary diagnosis. The SIERRA plus also is the first film digitizer small enough to be easily wall-mounted, solving siting problems commonly found at hospitals and radiology offices. It features VIDAR's next-generation proprietary High Definition CCD (HD-CCD ) technology. Its unique ADC™ (Automatic Digitizer Calibration) feature results in virtually no variation in image quality and ensures excellent grayscale reproduction in every image.

ClinicalExpress


Integrating prior studies and outside facilities...

If you need to access prior studies, access studies from outside facilities, connect a remote site,or make digital copies of films for the patient to take to another facility, VIDAR's ClinicalExpress for general radiography and mammography is the solution for you.

ClinicalExpress is designed for ease of operation and was developed specifically for use with the world's leading line of film digitizers — VIDAR System Corporation's DiagnosticPRO Advantage and CAD PRO Advantage. This software complies with the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) 3.0 standard to digitize relevant prior films and send the images to DICOM PACS or workstations; and allows you to easily connect outlying clinics, departments, film libraries, or your reading or treatment facilities. Alternatively, a user-friendly film digitizing station can be used to digitize film-based prior studies, including Mammography. The DICOM image files can then be sent to PACS, exported to CD, or used to print hard copy duplicates without the need for film-processing chemicals.

Customer Benefits

  • Use for general radiography and mammography.
  • Obtain film duplicates without the need for chemicals/darkroom.
  • Easy connection to user-selectable remote locations.
  • Import/Export other DICOM Media/manually write DICOM CDs
  • No retyping of patient and study level information with work list modality option.
