Running a radiology practice comes with challenges no matter how much you work hard to give your patients the best care. Equipment wears down and costs pile up. So, staying up to date feels overwhelming. You want to provide clear, fast diagnoses without stretching your budget. However, replacing your X-ray machines is a big expense.
There is always a better way. Agfa DR Retrofit helps you upgrade to digital radiography without buying new equipment. You keep what already works while improving speed, image quality, and workflow. And the best part? It saves you money in ways you might not expect.
Increases the Lifespan of Equipment
Your existing X-ray machines have served you well. Replacing them is expensive. DR Retrofit allows you to upgrade these machines to digital without buying new ones. This means you get modern technology while making the most of your current investment. Extending the life of your equipment helps you avoid the high expenses of new machines.
Speed Up Workflow and See More Patients
Time is everything in radiology. The faster you can get clear images, the faster you can diagnose and treat patients. But outdated systems slow you down. Technicians spend extra time adjusting settings or waiting for images. The system processes images faster, letting you move from one patient to the next without delays. The longer battery life means no interruptions.
Spend Less on Repairs and Maintenance
Old machines break down and it disrupts your workflow too. Patients wait longer, and repair bills keep coming. The entire work becomes quite frustrating. The Agfa Dura line panels are built to last, with a waterproof design as well as resistance to drops. That means fewer breakdowns and fewer repairs.
Lower Radiation Dose
Patient safety is a top priority. DR Retrofit allows for significant reductions in radiation dose without compromising image quality.
The advanced DR detectors and image processing work together to minimise exposure. Lower radiation doses enhance patient safety and meet regulatory standards. It reflects your commitment to premium quality care. ​
Enhance Image Quality
High-quality images are crucial for accurate diagnoses. DR Retrofit utilises advanced DR detectors with Cesium Iodide technology, delivering exceptional image clarity. Combined with MUSICA image processing, this technology provides sharp images with fine details. Better image quality reduces the need for retakes, saving time and reducing radiation exposure for patients. ​
Train Staff Quickly and Easily
Switching to new technology can feel overwhelming. What if it’s too complicated? What if your team struggles to adapt? You can’t afford long training periods that slow everything down.
DR Retrofit with Dura line panels has a simple interface that makes it seamless for everyone to learn. You no longer need any expensive or time-consuming training sessions. On the other hand, your staff too feels comfortable and confident.
Reduce Film & Storage Expenses
Moving to digital radiography eliminates the need for film, chemicals, and physical storage space. These traditional supplies and their disposal can be costly. With DR Retrofit combined with Dura line panels, images are stored digitally, reducing material costs and freeing up physical space. Digital storage also allows for easier access and sharing of patient images so it also enhances efficiency.
Enhance Data Security
Protecting patient information is essential. DR Retrofit includes WPA2-PSK cybersecurity features to safeguard sensitive data. Secure systems help prevent data breaches, avoiding potential legal issues and associated costs. Maintaining patient trust through robust data protection measures is vital for your practice’s reputation.
Saving money in radiology is not only about cutting costs. It is also about making smart choices. DR detectors gives you the power to upgrade without unnecessary expenses. You keep your trusted equipment while improving efficiency, image quality, and patient care. Agfa understands your needs. They’ve helped countless radiology practices transition to digital without breaking their budgets.
