Many veterinarians invested in X-ray systems in the ’90s. Most purchased an Innovet Summit table and generator.

They used the table and generator along with cassettes enclosing film to capture X-rays and provide life-saving next steps for their pet patients.

Processing the film in the chemical rinse and developing the images in the darkroom enabled the practicing veterinarian to review the X-ray.

If the X-ray proved complicating or just interesting then the veterinarian would mail the X-ray to a specialist for a review or save the X-ray case for the next ‘radiology rounds’ in upcoming weeks and months.

During these radiology rounds, X-ray cases would be reviewed amongst veterinarian piers and sometimes even veterinary radiologist.

Even if the patient was deceased by the time of the review huge advances in pet medicine were and still are to this day applied.

If you're reading this you use to film with your old X-ray generator and table. You want to impact the neighborhood and village who depend on precise and timely diagnosis to treat their pets.

Digital X-rays can speed up the process not only of image acquisition but also provide clear diagnostic radiology rounds.

Most old tables and generators still can produce excellent X-rays.

Often times these old systems have new light bulb collimators and replaced fuses that enable the old workhorse to continue to provide the power for an X-ray.

Yes, you can use your old table and generator with two types of digital X-rays.

The first is computed radiography or CR which will work today with any generator as the image is captured on an erasable film cassette then scanned into the software where the digital image can now be interrupted, adjusted or emailed to pet owners.

The next is an AED cesium plate. Automatic exposure detection.

This allows the plate to prepare itself for the exposure to capture the image and send in second the inmate to the display monitor.

This is the newest way to capture X-rays.

Not having to wire the old X-ray system to the new digital X-ray system is a confinement advantage.

It removes an element of future failure in hardware by eliminating the interference box!
