The VIDAR Advantage

VIDAR Systems Corporation, the recognized leader in film digitizing technology, offers the VIDAR DiagnosticPRO Advantage Film Digitizer. VIDAR has again raised the bar with its new Advantage product platform by achieving better overall performance than any other digitizer on the market.

VIDAR's DiagnosticPRO Advantage film digitizer has achieved the highest reliability, image quality, consistency, and best overall productivity of any digitizer on the market.

Technology Advantage and Innovation

The next generation DiagnosticPRO Advantage offers several technological advances that provide customers with increased "up-time", resulting in improved productivity and revenue. Higher speed, image quality, and reliability are just some of the new features of the DiagnosticPRO Advantage. With a Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) rate of over 50,000 hours, a modular film feeder, and a field-replaceable LED illuminator system, these innovations contribute to the highest reliability among digitizers on the market. A number of patents have been filed based on these advances, setting a new standard in medical film digitizer performance.

In addition to higher image quality and consistency, the DiagnosticPRO Advantage is designed for increased speed. It digitizes film twice as fast as previous models and can digitize up to 25 mixed-size films in batch mode—providing more productivity and greater efficiency, key benefits for radiology department personnel. The digitizer features proprietary High Definition CCD (HD-CCD) technology and sophisticated digital electronics. The unique Automatic Digitizer Calibration (ADC) system prompts the digitizer to self-calibrate before every film, eliminating user intervention and ensuring excellent grayscale reproduction with minimal variation.

With high-resolution capabilities (44.5 microns), the DiagnosticPRO Advantage can digitize mammography films and offers larger spot size options for general radiographic, CT, MR, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine films. It exceeds the American College of Radiology Teleradiology Practice Guidelines. Additionally, VIDAR offers the only 32-bit data path in the industry, maximizing grayscale accuracy and performance.

Exceptional Consistency – Proven Reliability

Unlike other digitizers that require biannual calibration or cleaning, VIDAR digitizers need no maintenance or calibration—saving nearly $2,000 annually. The straight-line film path minimizes service calls due to film jams. VIDAR digitizers have a Mean Time Between Failure of more than five years.

VIDAR is solely focused on serving its customers. Its premier customer service department supports VIDAR digitizers, and customers have responded enthusiastically—giving VIDAR the highest customer satisfaction rating in the industry.
