Hendry Regional Medical Center (Clewiston, FL) installed a CARESTREAM DRX-Ascend System (video) and retrofitted three existing X-ray rooms and one portable imaging system with CARESTREAM DRX-1 Systems to complete its conversion to digital radiography.

The hospital and its orthopaedic clinic upgraded to digital radiography to achieve improved image quality, lower radiation dose, and offer physicians rapid access to patients’ medical images.

DRX detectors are also installed in imaging systems that serve the general radiography department and a radiology/fluoroscopy room, as well as a rural satellite health clinic and a portable imaging system.
