Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR)
konicaminolta.com/medicalusa
How would your surgeons like 300 X-ray images that capture move-
ment, with a dose equivalent to 2 standard static X-rays? DDR, which
stands for Dynamic Digital Radiography (also called X-ray in Motion),
lets orthopedists view motion from standard X-ray images without flu-
oroscopy so they can make an on-the-spot diagnosis. It acquires up to
15 sequential radiographs per second for up to 20 seconds of physio-
logical movement. As a result, says the company, the surgeon can
observe dynamic interactions of structures such as soft tissue and
bone with physiological changes over time in a single exam. Images
can even be annotated.
