Stamford, CT - FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA is pleased to announce the commercial availability of the FCR Go™ portable digital x-ray system. The high performance FCR Go received FDA clearance this spring and is now being delivered to customers across the United States.

"The abundance of inquiries that the FCR Go has generated from facilities of all sizes validates the innovation this system brings to portable imaging," said Rob Fabrizio, Fujifilm's Marketing Manager, Digital X-ray. "We are excited to now be fulfilling customer requests and helping to provide the highest quality of patient care in portable imaging environments," he continued.

The FCR Go is the first portable digital x-ray system to provide remote users with all of the same functionality and sophisticated image processing features available at the fixed technologist workstation. All of the image optimization and advanced image processing features of Fujifilm's Flash IIP are accessible to the technologist right at the portable console so that image review as well as image reprocessing can be performed quickly and easily at the patient bedside, optimizing image quality while minimizing repeat exams and return trips.
With the unmistakable convenience of Fujifilm's lightweight cassettes, the FCR Go offers clear advantages over other portable digital systems which use a tethered detector. The FCR Go has the flexibility to be used in nearly every imaging environment including the operating room and neonatal. Its sleek, compact design and smart drive system also makes the FCR Go very easy to maneuver. Additionally, this portable system accommodates a wireless or hardwired connection to a facility's network, so the patient worklist is always available from the RIS/HIS and images can be transmitted to PACS immediately following study completion for quicker interpretation.
