MELVILLE, N.Y., Aug. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Virtual
Imaging, a wholly owned subsidiary of Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging
solutions, is proud to announce that Norton Healthcare has
purchased the RadPRO®1 OMNERA® 400T Manual-Positioning
Digital Radiography System for its Norton Audubon Hospital. As one
of the largest health care systems in the Louisville, Kentucky area, Norton Healthcare
is a leader in serving adult and pediatric patients throughout
Louisville Metro, providing care
at more than 210 locations throughout Greater Louisville and Southern Indiana.
Interstate Imaging, LLC, an authorized Virtual Imaging dealer,
assisted Norton with the selection of the RadPRO OMNERA 400T
Digital Radiography System. This system offered advanced imaging
with a minimal learning curve since Norton already had a fleet of
RadPRO® Mobile Digital X-ray Systems equipped with Canon detectors
and software.
"In recommending the RadPRO OMNERA 400T Digital Radiography
System, we were confident that the system would provide a smooth
transition, minimal learning curve and consistency with the
hospital's current Canon detectors and RadPRO® mobile devices,"
said Bob Bedwell, vice president,
Interstate Imaging, LLC.
"We understand that the healthcare industry has many options in
selecting a digital radiography system, and we are honored that our
products were chosen by the seasoned and knowledgeable healthcare
professionals at Norton," said Tsuneo
Imai, vice president and general manager, Healthcare
Solutions Division, Business Imaging Systems Group, Canon
U.S.A. and president, Virtual
Imaging, Inc.
The RadPRO OMNERA 400T Manual-Positioning Digital
Radiographic System
This high-quality, manual positioning
system is constructed of rugged aircraft aluminum, helping provide
the high throughput needed in high-volume hospital imaging
departments. Whether used in the trauma room or as a workhorse in
the radiography room, its lightweight design helps reduce the
physical demands placed on radiography technologists.
