OXOS Medical has gained U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance for its MC2 Portable X-ray System.

Portable and cordless, MC2 simplifies the process of taking X-rays in traditional and non-traditional spaces. Its features include:

  • Clear imaging for a confident diagnosis. In addition to static imaging capabilities, MC2’s 9-inch Class detector offers Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR)—a first for a device of this size—as well as fluoroscopy. When practitioners can quickly access accurate images, they can diagnose the patient swiftly and return them to regular activity.
  • Easy-to-use features for an efficient office. Practitioners using the MC2 can take X-rays efficiently with easy training and setup, helping reduce office wait times and caring for patients quicker. The device’s Viewfinder allows for quick positioning and alignment of the X-ray beam, and its Patented Positioning System assists in alignment for image capture.
  • Freedom to move the device where needed, without hassle. Most fluoroscopes and portable X-ray systems weigh 300 pounds or more. They’re challenging to maneuver, and some physicians ultimately choose to outsource X-ray needs to imaging centers.

MC2’s lightweight, ergonomic design makes it easy to move the device to the point of need and allows clinicians to maximize their limited space. In addition, MC2’s small scatter area and low radiation output can reduce the space and infrastructure needs required by larger systems.

“OXOS has focused on transforming the experience of X-ray services for both clinicians and patients,” OXOS Co-Founder/CEO Evan Ruff said. “By expanding access to medical imaging, the MC2 moves us closer to our mission of providing radiographic diagnostics that are accessible anytime, anywhere—enhancing the reach and impact of X-ray technology both in the United States and globally.”

MC2 is the latest release from OXOS, which launched the Micro C portable X-ray device in 2021. For the last three years, this portable solution has been used by clinics and athletic departments and has also brought X-ray capabilities to previously underserved areas.

“Everything we do at OXOS is about helping providers move into a new era of imaging,” OXOS Co-Founder/Chief Medical Officer Dr. Gregory Kolovich stated. “MC2 will simplify the imaging process, empowering clinicians to provide X-ray imaging using a device a fraction of the size. We can’t wait for practices to see the difference themselves.”

OXOS Medical develops ultra-portable X-ray devices for use in clinical, surgical, and remote care scenarios. The latest innovation from OXOS, the MC2, follows the Micro C, capturing static and serial images with dynamic digital radiography and fluoroscopy. MC2 has easy ergonomics, wireless capabilities, and a low radiation profile.
