Revolutionary Digital Motion X-Ray Machine

The compact, efficient KDR™ Advanced U-Arm (AU) System with Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) from Konica Minolta features an array of advanced design innovations to optimize workflow, increase staff effi ciency, outcomes, and now features Dynamic Digital Radiography.

Dynamic Digital Radiology (DDR) is a series of individual digital images acquired at high speed and low dose. The resulting cine loop presents a diagnostic-quality view of dynamic density and anatomical motion. Motion quantification is possible with proprietary advanced image processing. DDR is a promising platform for AI (Artificial Intelligence) applications.

The compact, efficient KDR™ Advanced U-Arm (AU) System with DDR from Konica Minolta features an array of advanced design innovations to optimize workflow, increase staff efficiency and improve outcomes, expediting the diagnostic process and elevating the patient experience.
That makes it an excellent option for all clinical settings.

Summary:
DDR with Intelligent Workstation (IWS) processing quantifies diaphragm motion – from any position, including, upright, weight-bearing position, which is not possible with CT or MR. This helps pulmonologists and radiologists increase the specificity and sensitivity of their diagnoses to help make better decisions sooner.

• Observe and quantify the dynamic interactions of lung, muscle, bone, heart and nerve
• Determine causes of pulmonary symptoms such as
Dyspnea (shortness of breath)
• Quantify diaphragm excursion and relative motion
• Dynamically assess bronchiectasis
• Differentiate restrictive versus obstructive lung disease
• Quantify lung capacity
