Radiology teams that image away from a fixed room use the Beatle-06P1 for mobile applications and outdoor radiography. The system travels as one case, so a technician can load it into a vehicle, carry it into a building and be ready to image within a few steps. A stable 5.6 kW supply covers a range of exposure demands, and the multiple preset APRs let the operator choose the programme for the region being examined.
Wards and bedside rounds are a regular setting. The gas-spring mobile stand folds and comes apart easily, so it passes through ward doors and corridors, and the tube head reaches the patient where the bed stands. Remote exposure control lets the technician work at a distance from the tube once the patient is positioned.
Outdoor and field work call for the triangular mobile stand, which Browiner intends for outdoor use, together with the battery. An internal lithium-ion battery supports both AC and DC supplies, so the system runs where a mains point is not close, and a short charging time prepares it for the next outing. The cable-free detector keeps rough ground clear of leads.
Upright examinations use the mobile chest stand, which holds a 14 × 17 or 17 × 17 inch detector at the patient. Images then pass through the intelligent workstation in DICOM 3.0 format and move directly to PACS, so a study taken at a remote site reaches the reporting radiologist in a standard form. The 8-inch touch screen keeps technique selection simple for staff who work across several sites.
