Design Specifications
Reveal 35C uses a three layer stacked sensor design to produce three X-ray images using a single conventional chest X-ray exposure. The X-ray images can then be used to generate a conventional digital radiography, a bone subtracted and a soft tissue subtracted X-ray image, and lateral view dual energy X-ray images.
The device is intended to be used in a similar way as a conventional digital X-ray detector.
Technical Support

Replacement Components
Lithium battery
Lifecycle
5-10 years
Manufacturer Specified Performance Parameters
Enable bone and soft tissue images in a single X-ray exposure
Vetted Performance Status
There is an ongoing lung cancer clinical trial with 30 patients at Grand River Hospital and a second, IRB-approved COVID-19 clinical trial with 600 patients with Princess Margaret Hospital and University of Toronto that began in June 2020. The product has since been FDA 510(k) cleared and Health Canada approved and is available for sale in the USA and Canada. Reveal 35C has also been certified under several performance standards.
Safety
Standard precaution with X-ray devices of safety factors such as radiation exposure should be taken
Complementary Technical Systems
A laptop or computer is needed to operate the device, an anti scatter grid can be supplied upon request
