FAQ

 

 

X Ray Machine

01.What are the key differences between the different models? How should I choose?

Fixed, upright models are suitable for resident veterinary hospitals, offering high imaging power and detailed image quality, capable of handling large daily volumes of cat and dog X-rays; the wheeled mobile model is suitable for clinics with limited space that require flexible bed adjustments; the portable X-ray Machine for Animals is lightweight and easy to carry, specifically designed for home visits, horse farms, and large animal testing in livestock farms. The Vet X-ray Machine is primarily for medium to large-sized formal hospitals, while the Animal X-ray Machine is suitable for small to medium-sized community pet shops. All three devices have a stable imaging speed of under 3 seconds.

02.Will radiation harm pets and healthcare workers?

All three devices utilize low-dose imaging technology, precisely controlling kV and mA parameters to significantly reduce radiation while maintaining clarity. The devices feature multiple leak-proof protection structures; using the corresponding protective gear can mitigate the risk. The portable X-ray Machine for Animals has a built-in intelligent exposure lock, preventing light emission if accidentally activated; the Vet X-ray Machine and Animal X-ray Machine have access control locks to prevent unauthorized operation.

03.Is the equipment installation complicated? Does it require modification of the clinic's electrical circuit?

The installation process for all models is simple. Standard vertical equipment can be debugged on the same day. The Vet X-Ray Machine supports a wide voltage range of 110V/220V; the Animal X-Ray Machine uses standard 220V household voltage, so ordinary clinics do not need to modify their electrical circuits; the X-ray Machine for Animals has a built-in rechargeable battery, allowing for 300 shots without an external power source, eliminating power supply limitations for field clinics.

04.Can the image files be integrated with hospital PACS systems?

All three models come with software that supports the DICOM standard format and can be integrated with PACS systems. They support image scaling, contrast adjustment, report printing, and USB flash drive archiving. The Vet X Ray Machine has 75 built-in animal shooting position presets, offering the most comprehensive software functionality; the Animal X Ray Machine has a simplified interface for quick learning; and the X-ray Machine for Animals comes with a lightweight image processing program for instant image output during field shooting.

Brief Introduction to Three Veterinary X-ray Machines

Vet X Ray Machine

Vet X Ray Machine

As a professional Vet X-ray Machine, it features a 20kW high-power dual-focus X-ray tube with a wide voltage range of 40kV-125kV, suitable for full-body skeletal and thoracic cavity imaging in cats and dogs. Its large 430mm×430mm flat panel detector and 16-bit AD conversion enable the reconstruction of minute lesions. This Vet X-ray Machine is ideal for chain veterinary hospitals with high daily patient volume. With its fixed integrated examination bed, it offers strong imaging penetration and is the preferred choice for preoperative examinations in orthopedics and abdominal surgeries.

Animal X Ray Machine

Animal X Ray Machine

The lightweight Animal X Ray Machine with wheels allows for easy portability and saves space, making it suitable for small community clinics and exotic pet clinics. Its 5.3kW power output meets the needs of standard cat and dog imaging, while the 9.7-inch touchscreen simplifies operation and includes built-in preset exposure parameters for 8 animal types. This Animal X Ray Machine offers excellent value for money and is a top choice for clinics with limited budgets and small spaces.

X-ray Machine for Animals

X-ray Machine for Animals

The portable, handheld X-ray Machine for Animals weighs only 9kg and features a built-in high-capacity battery that allows for 300 shots on a single charge. It's designed for home visits, horse farms, and livestock farms. Its 0.8mm microfocus enhances image clarity for small animals, and 32 preset parameters for different body parts allow for quick imaging of larger animals such as horses, cattle, and sheep. This X-ray Machine for Animals addresses the limitations of fixed equipment that cannot be used for home visits, expanding the scope of outreach services for clinics.

Small community clinics can choose the Animal X-Ray Machine; medium to large chain hospitals that require high-definition imaging and large-volume imaging recommend the Vet X-Ray Machine; and those with needs for home visits and large livestock diagnosis should purchase the X-ray Machine for Animals. All three devices offer stable imaging, comprehensive after-sales service, and cover all imaging diagnostic scenarios in the pet medical industry.
