ORmed™ – Acquisition software for digital X-ray images

Dynamic X-ray imaging

Acquisition, reporting and archiving of image sequences

(Available as an extension.)

Dynamic X-ray imaging in ORmed^™ enables continuous visualisation of the region being examined on the diagnostic display using pulsed X-rays.

This method is particularly suited to visualising movement, such as respiratory motion and movement of the diaphragm. Functional processes in the thorax can therefore be visualised through short image sequences.

ORmed^™ supports dynamic X-ray imaging with high-resolution detectors in a range of sizes.

Efficient X-ray workflow

From examination planning to the finished image

ORmed^™ supports the entire digital X-ray process: from importing patient data through examination planning and image acquisition to processing and transfer to the PACS.

• Intuitive operation using a touchscreen or mouse
• More than 400 individually customisable examination templates
• Examination sequences stored as macros
• Rapid registration of emergency patients
• Integrated multimedia X-ray assistant for radiographic technique and patient positioning

Professional image processing

Automatically optimised X-ray images

Cognition Optimised Processing (COP) automatically analyses the acquired image data and adapts processing to the anatomical region and acquisition conditions. High-quality images are therefore generally available immediately after acquisition, without extensive manual post-processing.

Automatic functions include:

• Analysis of soft tissue and bone structures
• Multi-frequency analysis
• Noise reduction
• Brightness and contrast optimisation
• Automatic black masking
• Grid line suppression and Gridless Imaging

Image display and editing

A comprehensive range of integrated tools

Acquired images can be reviewed and edited directly in ORmed^™. Functions such as zoom, window and level adjustment, length and angle measurements, text and arrow annotations, rotation, mirroring and the display of multiple images support image review and editing during the examination workflow.

Completed examinations can be automatically transferred to the PACS or exported as image files or DICOM files.

Stitching – a complete view of larger anatomical regions

ORmed^™ automatically combines multiple overlapping X-ray images into an anatomically consistent composite image. This provides a continuous view of anatomical regions that extend beyond the size of the detector.

Macros simplify the planning of long-leg or spinal X-rays. Automatic image alignment supports stitching, while manual correction options allow individual images to be adjusted precisely.

Greater flexibility in everyday X-ray imaging

• For paediatric examinations: dedicated planning for children and infants, with options based on age and weight.
• Faster image sequences: automatic progression to the next planned exposure reduces operating steps.
• Ready for emergencies: start acquisition mode without registering the patient first and add the patient details later.
• Flexible integration: suitable for motorised X-ray systems, retrofit solutions and, depending on the system configuration, mobile applications.
• OEM and white-label options: the user interface, branding and hardware integration can be adapted to individual system solutions.
