PROGNOST F

The PROGNOST F/FS X-ray table offers high-endstandards in quality and range of application.

This X-ray table can be delivered as single Bucky table (for replacement of existing Bucky table) or with matching column tube stand, which provides optimal synchronisation of the X-ray tube assembly and the Bucky by means of a special clutch system.

Outstanding stability and longevity together with best possible radiolucency are the result of the floating table top made of composite or carbon fibre, which is used in all PROGNOST models – It ensures reduced radiation exposure for patients and less wear and tear of the x-ray tube.

Due to their modular construction, all PROGNOST tables can be supplemented by optional Buckys applying film- and CR-cassettes (imaging plates). Alternatively, when using digital systems with flatpanels, special PROTEC DR-Buckys can be specified. Such possible upgrading is quite simple to arrange and ideal even as retrofit.
