Quality and Performance of the DRYVIEW 5850 for Medical Imaging
The Carestream DRYVIEW 5850 is a reliable and efficient solution for printing medical images intended for mammography and general radiology. With its photothermographic laser technology, this printer ensures consistent image quality with a precise resolution of 508 ppi. Its inkless operation provides clear and durable prints, ideal for demanding diagnostic applications.
Designed to fit into space-constrained medical environments, this compact printer is easy to install on a table or workstation. Its dual film loader supports multiple formats, ranging from 8 x 10 inches to 14 x 17 inches, allowing for flexible printing tailored to the specific needs of healthcare professionals.
The DRYVIEW 5850 stands out with its Automatic Image Quality Control (AIQC) system, which uses an integrated densitometer to adjust film density in real-time, ensuring optimal consistency from one print to the next. This process eliminates the need for regular manual checks, thereby simplifying the workflow in imaging centers.
Compatible with a wide range of modalities, including digital radiography (CR), digital mammography (FFDM), CT, MRI, and digital fluoroscopy, this printer seamlessly integrates into hospital infrastructures with its native DICOM interface. Its Ethernet network connection system ensures fast data transmission and facilitates remote access to device settings.
One of the major advantages of the DRYVIEW 5850 is its low maintenance requirement. Unlike systems using thermal printheads, it requires no daily or weekly maintenance of the heads or film transport rollers. This feature reduces operating costs and ensures reliable long-term operation.
With its ability to print up to 75 films per hour, a first print output time of 80 seconds, and compatibility with DryView medical films for over 100 years of durability, the DRYVIEW 5850 meets the stringent requirements of modern healthcare centers.
