The Intelli-C, a a multipurpose
tilting C fluoroscopic imaging system
CMS Imaging
announces the
first clinical installation in the US of the Intelli-C at ImageCare
"We have been working with the Intelli-C for a few months now. It provides all that I need
in my practice of diagnostic and interventional radiology. The configuration allows me to
perform interventional procedures, gastrointestinal procedures, pain management
applications, and orthopedic interventions, with low-dose radiation, without compromise in
image quality. Even at low pulse rate fluoroscopy, there is excellent visualization of
target structures."
Dr. Timothy P. Close, M.D. of Image Care, LLC.

Dynamic
Digital Radiology
Dynamic Digital Radiology (DDR) is not fluoroscopy, it is X-ray that
moves. DDR is a series of individual large format (17" x 17") digital x-ray exposures
acquired at high speed and low dose. The high-quality motion pictures of dynamic density
and anatomical motion are ideal for offline and even remote analysis and review. DDR is
the only exam that allows visualizing body functions on a large plane with low dose with
a high enough resolution to evaluate soft tissue without contrast.

Urgent Care Centers for Today's Consumers
A New Blog Post
Last week, I twisted my ankle
playing in the backyard with my dogs. My dogs have me well trained; I throw the ball, they
chase it, then they run away, making me then chase them to retrieve the ball. On one such
circuit, my foot hit one of the holes one of my dogs had dug (I love my dogs!), and my ankle
rolled in a manner that a 50+-year-old man's ankle should not move. After a quick check to
ensure that none of my neighbors saw what happened, I picked myself up and limped into the
house. After taking two ibuprofen and icing my ankle, the swelling did not go down, and my
ankle was turning a lovely shade of purple. My next action was to ask my wife to take me to
the local urgent care facility. At no point did I think to go to my local hospital's
emergency room. It wasn't until after I returned home with doctor's orders to rest, take
ibuprofen, and ice the offending joint, did I realize something interesting. That should
this have happened six years ago; I would have gone to the hospital instead of an urgent
care facility.
