Canon Medical Systems has launched a new member in its family of portable DR systems at this year's Society for Computer Applications in Radiology (SCAR) show in Austin, TX.
The Canon CXDI-50C works well for trauma, ICU, and bedside exam applications, and boasts a 14 x 17-inch imaging area, the Lake Success, NY-based company said. Weighing only 10.6 pounds, the system can be used with patients with limited mobility and for capturing images at angles that are difficult for fixed devices.
Canon CXDI-50C features the company's Canon Large Area New-MIS Sensor and TFT (LANMIT) detector technology, making it useful for pediatric and orthopedic applications, and incorporates Canon's amorphous silicon flat-panel detector and cesium iodide scintillator.

![Representative example of a 16-year-old male patient with underlying X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy. (A, B) Paired anteroposterior (AP) chest radiograph and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) report shows lumbar spine (L1 through L4) areal bone mineral density (BMD). The DXA report was reformatted for anonymization and improved readability. The patient had low BMD (Z score ≤ −2.0). (C) Model (chest radiography [CXR]–BMD) output shows the predicted raw BMD and Z score in comparison with the DXA reference standard, together with interpretability analyses using Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and gradient-weighted class activation maps. The patient was classified as having low BMD, consistent with the reference standard. AM = age-matched, DEXA = dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, RM2 = room 2, SNUH = Seoul National University Hospital, YA = young adult.](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/ai-children-bone-density.0snnf2EJjr.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=crop&h=112&q=70&w=112)
