Canon U.S.A. of Lake Success, NY, is highlighting a prototype of its first wireless, cassette-sized digital radiography (DR) system at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) in Vienna, Austria, this week.
CXDI-70C Wireless is designed to eliminate the sensor cable, allowing users to handle it like current film-cassette x-ray systems. It has a 35 x 43 cm effective imaging area and incorporates a new Canon-developed glass substrate with a pixel pitch of 125 microns and a cesium iodide scintillator. Canon also is working to further reduce the weight of the unit.
The new model is positioned as a high-end DR system, along with Canon's CXDI-55G/55C. Canon plans to launch CXDI-70C Wireless later this year.

![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&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
