Agfa HealthCare's Next-Generation CR System Helping to Reduce Pediatric Radiation Dose by Nearly 60%
Children’s Mercy Hospitals and Clinics, one of the nation’s top pediatric medical centers, provides services in more than 40 specialties, including nephrology, oncology, cardiology, heart surgery, orthopaedics, neurology and neurosurgery. Located in Kansas City, Missouri, the state-of-the-art 335-bed facility and 600-plus pediatricians and researchers are actively involved in clinical care, pediatric research and education. In addition to its primary facility, Children’s Mercy serves the community and the greater Midwest with outpatient facilities and outreach clinics throughout the city, county and surrounding communities. In 2012, Children’s Mercy purchased new Computed Radiography equipment from Agfa HealthCare. The Agfa HealthCare DX-G CR solution has allowed Children’s Mercy to reduce radiation dose by 57 percent compared to its previous CR system. “Premature infants are so much more susceptible to the risks of radiation. The DX-G with DirectriX CsBr plates allows us to give them the care they require while lowering the corresponding risk of radiation induced cancer,” says James C. Brown, M.D., director of radiology outreach; associate professor of radiology, University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine, “To reduce radiation dose by almost 60 percent and still have the same image quality is a significant step forward for Children’s Mercy and our neonatal patients.”
