Can X-ray image intensifiers be used in medical mobile radiography equipment?

X-ray image intensifiers are not commonly used in modern medical mobile radiography equipment. Image intensifiers were historically utilized in fluoroscopy systems to amplify and visualize X-ray images in real-time. However, their use in mobile radiography has diminished with the advent of digital radiography (DR) technology.

Modern mobile radiography equipment typically employs digital detectors, such as flat-panel detectors (FPDs), which directly convert X-ray photons into digital signals for image capture. FPDs offer advantages over image intensifiers, including higher image quality, faster image acquisition, and compatibility with digital imaging systems for storage, transmission, and manipulation.

While image intensifiers may still be found in some older mobile radiography units, they are less common due to the widespread adoption of digital technology. Mobile radiography units equipped with digital detectors are preferred for their superior performance, efficiency, and compatibility with modern healthcare systems. We are a manufacturer of X-ray machines and their accessories.
