Agfa Radiology Solutions is pleased to announce that NuMedX medical clinic in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, has installed a floor-mounted VALORY™ digital radiography room to add X-ray imaging to its comprehensive list of patient services. NuMedX is a ‘one-stop’ medical center offering a full range of diagnostic and treatment services under one roof. VALORY™ is the first medical imaging device installed at the clinic.

Empowering X-ray experts

“Having our own X-ray room is another step in our commitment to offering patients a comprehensive and integrated approach to their healthcare. It helps us ensure that patients get the imaging they need, which supports faster diagnosis and treatment turnaround, and better patient care. As this was our first experience in selecting and implementing an X-ray system, Agfa walked us through the whole process, including making sure our team and facility were well prepared. With their support, we were ready to go on day one, and everything went smoothly and efficiently. Already our radiographer says the image quality from the VALORY™ system is very high — even better than at some hospitals,” says Kayla Reed, Clinic Director at NuMedX.
“We are proud that NuMedX chose Agfa to add X-ray imaging to its range of health services, and are pleased to support them in their vision of providing healthcare under one roof with our own imaging expertise. VALORY™ combines functionality that goes far beyond the usual ‘basics’ with ease of use, enabling the clinic to offer the high-quality imaging needed for fast, accurate diagnosis,” says Bruce Romaglia, Senior Vice President & North American Business Leader, Agfa Radiology Solutions.

Scalable DR technology that supports clinical efficiency

The VALORY™ digital radiography (DR) room balances reliability and productivity in a modern and easy-to-use design. Its modular approach lets facilities fit the configuration to their current needs and budgets, with the flexibility to upgrade at their own speed.

Like all of Agfa’s DR systems, VALORY™ is powered by MUSICA®. The MUSICA® Imaging Workstation enhances workflow and productivity, with an intuitive interface for smooth, efficient DR imaging. With Agfa’s latest generation of its gold-standard MUSICA® image processing “one image is all it takes”, supporting ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principles for radiation dose.

VALORY™ comes with Dura-line™ Cesium Iodide detectors that offer robust reliability, cost-effectiveness and excellent battery autonomy. Combined with the intelligent MUSICA® image processing software, they deliver high image quality at the lowest possible dose[1].
