Portable Digital X-Ray System Deployed at Leading Addis Ababa Hospital
Expanding bedside diagnostic capabilities with a high-performance portable X-ray unit installed by STEM MEDICA engineers.
Bringing Imaging to the Patient's Bedside
Transporting critically ill or immobile patients to central radiology departments introduces risk and delays. To address this bottleneck, STEM MEDICA delivered and commissioned a high-frequency portable X-ray unit at one of Addis Ababa’s premier healthcare facilities.
Clinical Advantages
- Mobility & Flexibility: Compact footprint allows easy navigation between crowded ICU wards, triage areas, and operating rooms.
- Low-Dose, High-Resolution Imaging: Advanced generator and digital sensor pairing minimize radiation exposure while delivering sharp diagnostic radiography.
- Rapid Acquisition: Bedside exposures give clinicians immediate verification of line placement, chest pathology, and bone alignment.
STEM MEDICA biomedical engineers completed radiation safety checks, exposure verification, and technician operational training.
