Image interpretation module X-ACE 16

medical imaging

Scintillator, photodiode, ADC, and FPGA on a single PCBA High-light-output, ultra-fast medical-grade GOS scintillator Highly sensitivity, ultra-low dark current FSI photodiode Low noise, high resolution 24-bit ADC Adjustable integration time 100 μs to 100 ms No charge loss sampling 20 mm anatomical coverage at the isocenter Digital LVDS interface Adjustable full-scale range – 6.25 to 150 pC The X-ACE 16 is the industry’s first standard detector solution optimized for medical CT imaging needs in the value segment. The plug-and play-type solution is available as 16-slice detector cards, and alternatively as a complete subsystem that includes detector modules, X-DCB2 data combiner board, software libraries, and all the necessary accessories. The investment-free X-ACE 16 brings notable total cost savings and speeds up the time-to-market of CT systems in the highly competitive medical imaging market. The X-ACE product family is built on the well-proven and modular platform. The platform covers a wide imaging area and features the highest level of integration, as a scintillator, a photodiode, analog-to-digital converters (ADC), and a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) are assembled to a single printed circuit board (PCB). As a benefit, this means simplified system designs, straightforward integration, minimized risks, a streamlined supply chain, and detector solutions that are mechanically more robust and digitally enhanced. The platform easily scales up from 16-slice to 32-slice system configurations to cover a wide range of set-ups, and enables 20 millimeter coverage at the isocenter.
