Amerinet, Inc., a national healthcare solutions organization, signed a three-year agreement to offer Carestream’s CR and DR digital imaging systems to its 60,000-plus members nationwide. 

Carestream’s fully featured family of DRX systems equips physicians with access to high-quality digital images in just seconds, so they can make an immediate diagnosis and begin treatment. Digital imaging also enhances the sharing of imaging studies with referring physicians, specialists and other healthcare providers, which can help enhance patient care.     

The agreement includes: CARESTREAM DRX-Revolution Mobile X-ray System, CARESTREAM DRX-1 System, CARESTREAM DRX-Evolution, CARESTREAM DRX-Mobile Retrofit Kit and CARESTREAM DRX-Ascend System.

“Since our DRX detectors can be integrated with existing portable or room-based analog systems, we can help healthcare providers control costs to help offset reimbursement declines,” said Doug Spotts, General Manager, U.S. & Canada Medical Sales, Carestream Health. “Our DRX-based systems also produce exceptional diagnostic image quality, which helps reduce repeat exams and can lead to higher levels of patient care.”

The agreement also includes Carestream’s versatile family of CR systems that enable small to mid-size facilities to implement affordable digital imaging for general radiology and mammography exams. Carestream’s CR and DR imaging systems use the same graphic user interface, which helps improve productivity and allows technologists to proficiently use any system with minimal training.
