The AKMars 1717X is a best-in-class 17×17-inch cassette-size wireless flat panel detector developed by ArKang, engineered for high-end digital radiography (DR) systems. Built on amorphous silicon (a-Si) technology and paired with a direct deposition CsI scintillator, this wireless flat panel detector delivers exceptional image quality with excellent Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE) across all radiation frequencies. It integrates cutting-edge technologies including a lightweight IP56-rated housing, in-tray battery charging, and reliable low-power Automatic Exposure Detection (AED), making it an ideal choice for demanding clinical environments.
Core Features and Advantages
-
Best-in-Class Image Quality
This wireless flat panel detector features a 100 μm pixel pitch and 16-bit ADC, delivering a spatial resolution of 4.3 lp/mm. The direct deposition CsI scintillator ensures high DQE at all frequencies, capturing fine anatomical details with minimal noise—critical for precise diagnostic imaging of bones, soft tissues, and chest structures.
-
Full AED Control & Flexible Triggering
Equipped with full Automatic Exposure Detection (AED) control, this wireless flat panel detector enables exposure at any time, optimizing imaging parameters for consistent results. It also supports software triggering, offering flexibility for diverse clinical workflows and reducing the need for retakes.
-
Rugged IP56 Protection & Durability
The lightweight housing (3.4 kg) features IP56 ingress protection, safeguarding against dust and water immersion. This makes the wireless flat panel detector suitable for use in challenging clinical environments, while its 300 kg uniform static loading capacity ensures long-term reliability and stability.
-
Efficient Workflow & Long Battery Life
With an 8-hour battery autonomy and in-tray charging, this wireless flat panel detector supports extended imaging sessions without interruptions. A 3-second full image time and >100 internal image storage streamline workflows, reducing patient waiting times and boosting clinic productivity.
-
Dual-Band Wireless Connectivity & Compatibility
The dual-band (2.4G & 5G) WiFi interface ensures stable, high-speed data transmission, enabling seamless integration with PACS systems and real-time image review. This wireless flat panel detector also complies with ISO 4090, fitting seamlessly into standard bucky systems for easy retrofitting of existing DR setups.
