Animage, LLC, has created a new three-modality diagnostic imaging system, Fidex, for
companion animal veterinary practice and research laboratories. Fidex combines into a
single machine: computed tomography(CT), digital radiography(DR), and fluoroscopy
Fidex can also be configured as a one-, or two-modality system Fidex's combination of
these modalities into one machine conserves valuable space and financial resources, as
vell as energy and other operational expenses, thus making the clinical and economic
advantages of in-house CT capability vastly more achievable
The combination of CT, radiography, and fluoroscopy in one machine creates
unprecedented economies of space, energy, and financial resources. Because of this, Fidex
can put the benefits of the diagnostic power of cT at the service of
many more veterinarians, their patients, and the people who love their patients
Even as just a CT scanner, Fidex offers a brand new CT system that is smaller, requires
to operate and maintain than a refurbished, used human CT scanner. Fidex runs fromg h
much less power and room modification, is easier to operate and maintain, and costs les
standard 110 V wall outlet (optionally 220 V), requires no cooling beyond standard office
temperature controls, has similar shielding parameters to standard radiography systems
and can go right through standard doors and hallways and be installed in as little as an hour
eady to run in two hours
