Siemens Healthcare (NYSE:SI) said it won 510(k) clearance from the FDA for its Multitom Rax robotic advanced X-ray scanner, which is designed to function across multiple clinical areas.
Malvern, Pa.-based Siemens Healthcare said the Multitom Rax is designed to cover examinations ranging from emergency medicine and interventional to pain management and orthopedics, using 1 room and a single X-ray system. The system is the 1st to provide #d natural weight-bearing images, the company said.
“With the Multitom Rax, Siemens is proud to introduce the world’s first twin robotic X-ray system,” X-ray products vice president Martin Silverman said in prepared remarks. “This universal X-ray system delivers unprecedented versatility for health care facilities. Now, clinicians can perform a multitude of imaging exams in one room without moving the patient. With the Multitom Rax, we’re opening a new chapter in X-ray technology.”
