Brivo™ DR-FSimply digital.

You asked for a practical digitalsolution and we listened.GE’s Brivo DR-F digital X-ray systemprovides the functionality you needin a compact, cost-effective package.

Easy to useAt the heart of Brivo DR-F is GE’sproprietary flat-panel digital detector,which is as easy to use as conventionalor CR cassettes. The system’s straight-forward design minimizes staff trainingtime and streamlines your operations.

EfficientWith a digital system, retakes aredrastically reduced and film handlingis eliminated. The result? Improvedpatient flow and a more productiveradiology department.

ReliableSeeing is believing. With the GE digitalflat-panel detector, you can increasedata integrity – and improve diagnosticconfidence – at a lower patient dose.And thanks to the dynamic range ofthe detector, retakes are also reduced.

Eco-FriendlyConverting to digital radiologyeliminates film – and that translatesto significant environmental savings.Not only will you reduce powerconsumption by removing youranalog film processor, but you willalso eliminate processing chemicalsand water baths from the environmentwhile having fewer analog films tostore. And with this highly productivesystem, you will be able to complete asmany patient exams in one digital roomas you could in two analog rooms.

Innovativelow-dose imagingThe patented digital flat-panel detectorhas set a standard for reliable, low-doseimage quality. And it’s yours with theBrivo DR-F.

The system’s Detective QuantumEfficiency (DQE) and Tissue Equalizationsoftware algorithm enable you to seemore information on both high and lowdensity areas of the image.

All exposure and dose parameters aredisplayed directly on the monitor andsent automatically to your connectedHIS/RIS system, with the DICOMstandards.

The intuitive Brivo DR-F interfaceimproves the integrity of yourpatient information:• Helps ensure information is

entered into the system onlyonce and is electronicallytransferred to the appropriatelocations.

• Reduces the likelihoodof incorrectly re-enteringpatient informationthroughout the patientcare process.

Built for clinical relevanceUnlike conventional ‘multi-tile”detectors, the GE flat panel detector’snon-tile formation has no ‘blind spots’ –and thereby ensures seamless imagecapture.

The high frequency generator’s quick,accurate techniques deliver lower doseand improve precision drastically.

Moreover, with Brivo DR-F, you haveaccess to advanced imagingtechniques through an intuitive,multilingual user interface and postprocessing.
