It is designed to efficiently use the space providers have to safely diagnose and treat all patients, without the need for a major renovation.
The system has the capability to accommodate up to 500lb, with a wide and high-capacity table to comfortably image a range of patients.
The Ultimax-i FPD system has full-spectrum detection on a flat-panel detector with corner-to-corner and 43cm x 43cm coverage for high-resolution imaging.
In addition, the large, flat-panel detector helps reduce dose by limiting areas of anatomy receiving unnecessarily repeated radiation exposure, providing safer exams.

By GlobalDataToshiba x-ray vascular business unit director Bill Newsom said: "At Toshiba, we believe hospitals shouldn’t have to endure costly construction to renovate smaller existing R&F rooms or delay a system upgrade to expand their imaging capabilities.
"With Ultimax-i FPD, healthcare providers don’t have to sacrifice on advanced imaging technology, allowing them to deliver better patient care and achieve the triple aim of reform."
The company will exhibit the Ultimax-i FPD multipurpose system at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting in Chicago, which will be held from 29 November – 4 December.
In June, the company partnered with Merge Healthcare to provide new solutions for cardiology and hemodynamics.
Under the deal, Merge’s cardiology PACS and haemodynamic monitoring solutions will be integrated with the Toshiba portfolio of vascular x-ray systems.
Toshiba will use Merge’s Best in KLAS Merge hemo real-time documentation tool and Merge cardio system.
