CCD Technology and Digital Radiography

The ImaSight 4600 utilizes CCD (charge coupled device) technology that has proven highly successful in healthcare radiography applications over the last two decades. Our system uses one high quality CCD with a large imaging surface (16 million pixel image area) that provides the sensitivity, resolution and contrast demanded for the generation of high quality digital x-ray images. The CCD we use has a very high signal-to-noise ratio (very low noise) that boosts image quality significantly.

Technology
As a result, we can optimize efficiency and avoid the problems associated with other systems that use an array of smaller CCDs or low resolution CCDs. In fact, the CCD we chose for the ImaSight 4600 is already deployed in significantly more expensive hospital-based systems, reinforcing the fact that CCD-based image sensors fully meet the key image metrics required by your practice area.

The proprietary optical design developed by ImaSight research team involves a patented 3D light path, which enhances even further the efficiency of the CCD by capturing more quality light in order to produce a razor-sharp digital x-ray image.

Our low power design and innovative optics configurations dramatically improves the ImaSight 4600 reliability. As such, we are able to utilize internal heatsink cooling to maintain optimum temperatures. There are no liquids or moving parts such as fans to introduce dust or promote corrosion. The patented 3D lightpath configuration also keeps all internal electronics away from any damaging radiation. Therefore the ImaSight 4600 is a fully sealed unit that results in maintenance-free operation.
