Agfa Radiology Solutions is expanding its DR 600 x-ray room with a stretcher-based digital tomosynthesis capability that allows exams to be performed without repositioning patients.
The enhancement is powered by Agfa's Musica image processing and uses the company's Dura-line XF+ glass-free detectors, which offer 99-micron resolution. The system delivers multislice imaging with depth information at a radiation dose comparable to standard radiography, Agfa said. This capability is designed to improve detection of findings such as microfractures, pulmonary nodules, and kidney stones, and is intended for trauma, emergency, and mobility-limited cases.
Agfa will showcase the technology at ECR 2026, running March 3 to 8 in Vienna, at booth X2 214.
![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.
