CAPABILITIES.
Since its introduction, the CARESTREAM
DRX-Evolution has set a benchmark for
imaging performance in hospitals around
the world.
Today, it still offers the power of the
X-Factor, with a wireless DRX Detector
that works across virtually all of your
imaging systems. It still features modular
design, to fit your individual space,
workflow and budget. And it still protects
you from technology obsolescence with
its future-proof design.
But now, the Evolution Plus delivers even
more: a full range of new features and
options that makes it more powerful,
more dependable and more affordable
than ever.

for both function and aesthetics. All in all,
this upgraded Evolution Plus sports the
contemporary, professional look that defines
21st-century imaging facilities.
MORE THAN SKIN DEEP
The benefits go far beyond its cutting-edge
makeover. New features include a table with
higher weight capacity, enhanced pediatric
capabilities, extended tube-column range for
sites with high ceilings, future-friendly design
to accommodate advanced applications as
they’re released, and more.
