Backed by MIOT Expertise

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray is supported by its unmatched expertise. The radiology technicians performing the X-ray are trained at MIOT International, Chennai. The results are backed by expert advice from a team of senior radiologists at MIOT International, through tele-radiology. It is your guide towards the right medical care.

Highest Accuracy

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray has preset exposures for different organs, determined by research and development teams from across the world. It also has a highly sensitive, state-of-the-art detector - a cesium iodide scintillator coupled to a TFT Matrix with amorphous silicon technology. This helps deliver the highest imaging accuracy. It is enhanced by careful patient positioning and radiography techniques by our well-trained team of radiographers.

Enhanced Imaging Quality

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray generates images with a pixel size of 139 μm, a spatial resolution of 3.6 lp/mm and digitisation depth of 16 bits for superior clarity and quality.

During post-processing, the advanced zoom feature offers an enlarged view up to 15x, while digital manipulation helps produce clearer images of the skull, chest and bones. It ensures that there is absolutely no room for error in capturing details and viewing the images. This enables better treatment decisions.

Lowest Radiation Exposure

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray reduces radiation by 50-60% in comparison to conventional X-ray imaging. Its auto-modulation feature automatically adjusts the level of radiation exposure depending on the thickness and size of the region covered. The DAP (Dose Area Product) meter records the dose per image and the accumulated dose for each patient. The machine’s copper filters further reduce the dose. This combination of cutting-edge features ensures the lowest radiation, which is safer for the patient, without compromising on the image quality.

Wider Coverage

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray is highly versatile - it is designed for weight-bearing X-rays, chest X-rays and even imaging while the patient is standing. The X-ray has a wide 17x17” field-of-view, making it the first of its kind in Seychelles. It enables a larger area to be covered in a single exposure.

Advanced Safety Features

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray comes with state-of-the-art patient safety features, including emergency stop buttons and collision sensors. The sturdily designed X-ray table can bear up to 360kgs. Patient safety is our highest priority, while delivering accurate results.

MIOT’s Instant Digital X-ray is a new dimension in diagnostic care, providing faster results with greater accuracy. It enables focused healthcare and better patient outcomes, echoing MIOT International’s enduring commitment to Seychellois.
