20/20 Imaging Announces Availability of Versatile Digital X-Ray System for Chiropractors

GARNER, NC--(Marketwired - Aug 14, 2013) - 20/20 Imaging, a specialized provider of digital imaging solutions for chiropractics, announces the availability of its complete chiropractic Straight-Arm digital x-ray DR system. The highly versatile and cost-effective solution offers chiropractors improvements in care delivery via advanced accuracy in image capture.

Subsequent to patient examination, chiropractors must position their x-ray systems to achieve the best possible view for diagnosis, but some areas, such as upper cervical and extremities, prove challenging to image due to the lack of adjustability in positioning traditional wall stand chiropractic x-ray systems. This integrated system's versatile mechanical swivel arm with detector cabinet provides unique rotation capabilities as well as flexible height settings. The Chiro Straight-Arm is highly adaptable to the most difficult positioning angles, enabling chiropractors to achieve the best position, capture the best view, and deliver the best care to patients.

"As the chiropractic market continues to evolve to meet the needs of an increasingly digital and more efficient healthcare industry, it's critical that newer technologies are made available to enable chiropractors to remain on the forefront of these advancements, while maintaining the consistency in precision and quality of care that they are used to," stated Bob Salzman, president, 20/20 Imaging. "The 20/20 Chiro Straight-Arm is a step into the future and does what standard chiropractic systems cannot: it allows chiropractors to conveniently position the system at a variety of previously difficult-to-accomplish viewing angles and capture images that provide the best derivable image to treat patients."

In addition to providing superb images, the Chiro Straight-Arm system also provides for the transition to a completely filmless future. When reporting findings and educating patients, chiropractors previously drew lines on x-rays -- a feature offered via the 20/20 solution's flat panel detector (DR) and integrated Opal-CHIRO software, which enable the same functionality of creating biomechanical drawings, but from a digital standpoint.

Chiropractic practices also benefit from the highly versatile Straight-Arm's all-in-one, space-saving design. The state of the art digital x-ray system enables easy image viewing and eliminates the need to process and file films, as well as the maintenance required when operating a full-scale darkroom, thus relieving practices of the significant costs. When complemented by the customizable, user-friendly Opal-CHIRO software, which comes loaded with a full set of chiropractic tools, the Straight-Arm provides chiropractors with the ability to expedite patient treatment and enable overall practice efficiencies.

"The faster throughput of patients allowed by the Straight-Arm can mean greater revenues for practices. Coupled with the 20/20 software, the system is a user-friendly, all-in-one chiropractic solution that is the most versatile digital x-ray system on the market," said Salzman. "Chiropractors are ready to bridge any perceived gap in advanced care between themselves and the healthcare world, and we're happy to assist in accomplishing that goal."
