Key Features of Shimadzu FLEXAVISION F4

FLEXAVISION F4 incorporates advanced technologies that make it an efficient and reliable solution.

Wireless FPD (Flat Panel Detector)

The 17” × 17” wireless FPD provides full flexibility during X-ray examinations. The panel offers high sensitivity and superior image quality, enabling detailed and accurate imaging even in complex cases or when examining hard-to-reach organs and structures.

The wireless detector can be used inside the Flexavision unit, on the device surface, or placed directly on the patient’s bed.

This smart detector enhances comfort and improves workflow efficiency. Physicians no longer need excessive hand movements or repeated patient repositioning. The result is faster, safer, and more accurate examinations.

Multifunctional Configuration

FLEXAVISION F4 stands out with its multifunctional configuration, making it suitable for both routine and specialized examinations.

This versatility allows faster and more efficient studies while providing patients with comfortable, safe, and technologically advanced service.

High Image Quality and Accuracy

A major advantage of FLEXAVISION F4 is its high-resolution imaging, essential for precise diagnosis. The images are detailed and virtually free of distortion, which is particularly important in complex or orthopedic examinations where fine details are critical.

The system ensures rapid image acquisition, eliminating the need for repeated exposures.

Clinical Applications of FLEXAVISION F4

Thanks to its versatility, FLEXAVISION F4 can be used in a wide range of radiographic examinations:

General Radiography (DR)

Fast and accurate imaging for routine diagnostics.

Lungs

High-resolution imaging for detailed assessment of pulmonary conditions, including chronic and pathological changes.

Pelvis and Extremities

Rapid and precise imaging essential for trauma and orthopedic diagnostics.

High accuracy enables proper assessment of bone structures and supports effective treatment planning.

Gastroenterological Examinations

FLEXAVISION F4 is also highly effective for gastrointestinal studies. It enables accurate visualization of the stomach, intestines, and mucosal surfaces.

This technology accelerates procedures, enhances patient comfort, and supports timely and accurate diagnosis.

Urological Examinations

The system is suitable for urological studies such as cystography and contrast urography. It enables visualization of the bladder and urinary tract, often using contrast agents for enhanced detail.

High resolution and rapid imaging allow physicians to analyze findings accurately while improving patient comfort and saving time.

Safety and Radiation Dose Control

FLEXAVISION F4 incorporates advanced Japanese technology that reduces radiation dose while maintaining high image quality.

Features include:

  • Pulsed imaging for reduced radiation exposure

  • Beam-hardening filters to block unnecessary radiation and improve contrast

  • Virtual collimation for precise beam direction and enhanced accuracy

These technologies ensure minimal radiation dose, particularly important for patients requiring frequent imaging.

Clinical Benefits

FLEXAVISION F4 combines advanced technology, precision, and convenience.

Key benefits include:

  • Accurate diagnostics through high-resolution imaging

  • Efficient procedures with rapid image acquisition

  • Patient comfort via wireless panel and flexible positioning

  • Enhanced safety through radiation dose control

Shimadzu FLEXAVISION F4 is one of the most advanced and functional DR systems available. Its innovative technology, compact design, and high performance ensure safe, efficient, and comfortable examinations.

A key feature is the 17” × 17” wireless FPD, providing high resolution, a wide imaging field, and convenient positioning for various examinations, including general radiography and specialized urological studies.
