that has the potential for dose reduction for all studies,
including mammography, neonatology, and pediatrics.
That incorporates artificial intelligence with SmartRotate,
which enhances productivity, allows consistent viewing
independent of the cassette-orientation, and keeps the
full focus on patient care. That combines excellent image
quality with high throughput, delivered by a unique five
