FUJIFILM FCR XL-1 and FCR XC-1

With FCR, you get exceptional image quality - every time.

All digital x-ray systems are not created equal. And good image quality does not happen automatically. It takes a great deal of expertise to create exceptional images. Every Fuji CR system benefits from over two decades of experience in presenting images of the highest quality. And that's because FCR XL-1 and FCR XC-1 include Image Intelligencem a suite of sophisticated technologies that ensure images are presented optimally, every time Fuji's world-renowned image processing tool include:

• Multi-objective Frequency Processing (MFP) simultaneously applies varying degrees of contrast and spatial frequency enhancement to different-sized structures within the same image. This improves the visibility of both dense and peripheral tissue. MFP is especially useful for clearer visualization of implants and other foreign objects that are often susceptible to artifacts that may obscure pathology. 

• Dynamic Range Control (DRC) improves visibility of both dense and peripheral tissue, which is essential for seeing through the mediastinum on chest exams.

• Flexible Noise Control (FNC) extracts noise data and suppresses noise levels from images without losing sharpness and associated information. This improves granularity in noisy anatomical regions, such as the lumbar and pelvic areas, and improves image quality in exams when lower doses are expected.

• Grid Pattern Removal (GPR) automatically detects grid patterns, then uses a two-dimensional technique to remove them. This prevents the appearance of a moire pattern, which can occur when using a stationary grid. 

          But that's not all. Here's a run down of other tools and technologies included in               FCR XL-1 and FCR XC-1:

• Exposure Data Recognizer (EDR) automatically detects the most important data captured by an Imaging Plate (IP), then applies anatomically-specific processing to present the image optimally for the intended exam. By masking noise and other useless information, Fuji's digital images are more forgiving to variable exposure conditions and minimize post-processing enhancements required by the user.

• Every Fuji digital image is scanned at HQ (10 pixel/mm) spatial resolution, regardless of plate size. This means that you get exceptional image detail every time without having to use special IPs - and without impacting throughput*.

• Fuji's IPs Features:
• high DQE (detective quantum efficiency) and signal-to-noise ratio so that film-screen techniques can be maintained and, in some cases reduced from current levels.
• CR features a wider dynamic range than film, it is more forgiving to over- and under-exposure, eliminating repeat exams due to exposure conditions.

• FCR XL-1 is Perfect for higher-volume practices:
• processes up to 94 images per hour 
• small size for small exam rooms or offices where space is limited

• FCR XC-1 is Ideal for lower-volume or off-site locations:
• throughput speeds of up to 60 images per hour
• ideal choice for practices with lower caseloads that simply won't compromise on image quality
• great for off-site locations that need to transmit images back to another practice
• high-quality images every time
