At a glance

Premium image quality

High-quality detectors and AI-powered image processing software reduce variability

Smart workflows

In-room workflows and automated exam features help you focus on the patient

System automation

Save time and reduce exertion with automated, synchronized component movement

Exceptional value

Easy to use and reliable, this system ensures a low total cost of ownership

No shortage of X-ray challenges

X-ray is often the first touch in patient care, making up over 65% of imaging procedures1,2. But as important as it is, running an X-ray department is currently proving difficult for many reasons. Staffing shortages, burnout and frequent image rejections drive up costs and stress. With lower reimbursement rates, your facility needs a system with low total cost of ownership to thrive without needing a high volume of exams. Opting for a system with low training costs, high uptime, and minimal maintenance and repair expenses can help you stay efficient and cost-effective.

Definium Pace Select

Focus on your patients, not the process

Definium Pace Select ET is an advanced, automated, floor mount digital X-ray system designed to help decrease the physical strain on technologists. Features like synchronized component movement and in-room workflows help technologists operate more efficiently while also helping reduce errors and repeat exams. Equipped with intelligent applications, the system provides assistance to ease the burden on technologists and to focus on what matters most — the patient.

Experience complete control in the exam room

Smart tube head console with a 12-inch touchscreen: Allows entire exam management in-room, reducing manual work and increasing throughput

AutoRAD^†, with Auto Protocol Assist and Auto Field-of-View: Automatically selects the correct anatomy-specific protocol and collimation after patient selection

Integrated Dose Monitoring: Dose Area Product (DAP) is automatically annotated onto the digital image for the exposure and is displayed on the acquisition screen post-exposure

Automated, synchronized components reduce manual work

Definium Pace Select ET assists technologists by synchronizing movement of its components, reducing the need to manually move them — saving time, minimizing exertion and making positioning more precise.

2-axis motorized tube: Vertical and angle servo-driven motion assists technologists with equipment positioning

Auto tracking: The tube and detector maintain alignment and SID by automatically moving to synchronize position at the table or the wall stand

Reverse tracking: The wall stand housing can automatically move to synchronize with tube movements

Auto angulation: The tube automatically moves to change angulation to a predefined position at the push of a button

Auto Field-of-View^†: Sets the size and orientation of the collimation automatically based on the procedure and view selected

Stay aware of your patient’s position and comfort

Enabled by the live streaming video 3D and camera, the Intelligent Workflow Suite† combines computer vision, video analytics and precision engineering to deliver a solution for common radiology department errors and inefficiencies. It features:

Position Assist^†: Shows boundaries and active ion chamber locations to help avoid retakes

Technique Assist^†: Measures patient thickness and suggests an optimized size

Collimation Assist^†: Provides an overlay of the collimation on the patient video image to assist the technologist in checking — and if necessary, adjusting — the collimation right before exposure

Patient Snapshot^†: Takes an optical picture with the X-ray to serve as context for the radiologist

Minimized image variability improves diagnostic confidence

The Definium Pace Select ET uses high-quality detectors and AI-powered advanced image processing software to reduce variability and provide optimal image quality, with the clarity, contrast and resolution to make decisive decisions.

FlashPad™ Select detectors: These dose-efficient, high DQE wireless detectors enable visualization of extraordinary anatomical detail, offering 4x higher resolution than 200 micron pixel detectors.
QuickCharge offers in-bin charging and QuickConnect allows easy movement of the detector while avoiding wireless interference.

AI-powered software: Helix™ 3.0 advanced image processing provides outstanding clarity and exceptional anatomical detail across image types with anatomy-specific image enhancement.

Helix 3.0 algorithms are designed to deliver outstanding resolution, excellent edge presentation, consistency and noise handling. Algorithms include:

Artificial Intelligence Brightness and Contrast (AIBC)
Artificial Intelligence Tissue Equalization (AITE)**
Local Contrast Enhancement (LCE)
Detail preserving Noise Reduction (DPNR)

Advanced technology helps you see beyond the detector

Angulated Auto Image Paste†: This highly automated and efficient procedure creates a single stitched image that extends beyond the size of the detector.

At the wall stand, it enables automated acquisition of two to four images covering up to 150 cm (59 in)*

Angulated Auto Image Paste at the table enables automated acquisition of two images covering up to 76 cm (30 in)*.

Angulated Auto Image Paste includes imaging of the spine for scoliosis evaluation and imaging of the legs for orthopedic evaluations.

AutoSpine algorithm
Included with Angulated Auto Image Paste, the intelligent AutoSpine algorithm that follows the contour of the spine for vertical equalization to enable a natural balance of brightness and contrast along the patient’s body.
