Digital radiography developer Swissray has announced that it will deliver its first ddRCombi-System in the U.S., to Southside Hospital in Bay Shore, NY. Installation is expected to be completed in July for the system, a multifunctional unit designed for emergency room applications.

The ddRCombi-System unit can perform examinations on seated, upright, and recumbent patients; it can be coupled with an automated or manual ceiling suspension; or may be combined with an existing ceiling suspension unit in order to lower purchase costs, according to Swissray. The New York City-based firm debuted ddRCombi-System at the 1999 RSNA meeting.
