AI Software Included on MinXray’s Portable Digital Radiography Systems

MinXray has enhanced its diagnostic digital radiography capabilities with the addition of qXR Automated Chest X-ray AI Solution from Qure.ai. The new AI software can detect and localize 30 chest X-ray abnormalities including TB and changes indicative of COVID-19 infections.
 
Available on the CMDR Series portable digital radiography systems and the Impact battery-powered portable digital radiography system, the qXR module is loaded directly on the system laptop, with no additional hardware required. X-ray exposure to AI report interpretation occurs in less than 60 seconds. Both systems also include qTrack from Qure.ai, an end-to-end disease management tool that specializes in respiratory disease such as COVID-19 and TB.
 
“qXR is being used worldwide for TB screenings,” said Mike Cairnie, MinXray’s Global Sales director. “We see that automated chest X-ray reads have become a valuable diagnostic tool, helping more doctors fast-track confirmation of TB in patients. With the prevalence of TB and a lack of physicians, who are needed to interpret chest X-rays in a timely manner, AI increases the capacity for faster and earlier detection.”
 
As a chest X-ray screening tool, qXR can detect signs of pulmonary, hilar, and pleural tuberculosis. The artificial intelligence algorithm for qXR is trained to detect not only classic primary pulmonary TB, but also atypical manifestations. It can also be used to screen for COPD, lung malignancies in high-risk populations and certain cardiac disorders.
 
MinXray’s Impact with qXR AI Solution offers a complete battery-powered digital radiography system in a single, portable package. This compact system includes MinXray’s TR90BH battery-powered X-ray generator, wireless CsI Flat Panel DR Detector and laptop with MinXView DICOM 3.0 compliant image acquisition software with qXR from Qure.ai.The system is easily transported to remote locations without available power and total system setup is less than one minute. 
 
MinXray’s CMDR.CW.120.S with qXR AI Solution is a complete portable digital radiography system that includes MinXray’s most powerful X-ray generator, the HF120/60HPPWV PowerPlusÔ or HF100H+. It comes with a wireless or tethered CsI Flat Panel DR Detector and a laptop with MinXView DICOM 3.0 compliant image acquisition software with Qure.ai’s qXR; all mounted on MinXray’s rugged XGS stainless steel portable stand. The system is easily transported as required for portable imaging with total system setup takingless than one minute. 
 
MinXray’s portable imaging systems are designed for global health programs, military use and other mobile medical applications. MinXray systems are available through Global Fund procurement channels. Since 1967, MinXray Inc. has developed portable diagnostic X-ray imaging. The devices, available in both portable and mobile units, can be used in multiple applications where it is more efficient to bring the X-ray unit to the patient instead of the patient to the X-ray unit. MinXray products are used in a variety of medical, veterinary, and military applications.
