Ashville North Carolina, August 16, 2010 – Sound-Eklin™ will announce during the American College of Veterinary Radiology (ACVR) conference,  the release of the TruDR eSeries™ platform of veterinary digital radiography systems.  With this release, Sound-Eklin™, the world market-share leader in veterinary diagnostic imaging, is able to provide the first ever platform of digital radiography systems with optimized workflow, features, image quality, and reliability in a variety of flat panel sizes that makes industry leading technology accessible to every size practice.

Bill Hornof, DVM, Dip. ACVR, Chief Medical Officer of Sound-Eklin™ presented to a large group of radiologists the game-changing technology in the TruDR eSeries™ platform. “Image Chain™ provides us with the necessary control to provide quality images every time, and minimize technique errors,” explained Dr. Hornof.  “Positioning Assistant™ provides technicians with instant feedback to make sure that the correct anatomy is included in the image, and  that the image is oriented properly before sending to PACS and viewed by the doctor.  The combination of these technologies makes it easier for staff to obtain radiographs with more diagnostic value.”

The base model; TruDR e1600™ boasts a new 16x16 inch detector which is easily integrated into most any existing x-ray table.  TruDR e1600™ provides the power, features, speed and return on investment of the world’s more advanced flat panel platforms at a price point in line with the higher end CCD and CR systems. 

As stated by Matt Wright, DVM, Dip. ACVR, in an AnimalInsides.com commentary about digital radiography in 2010, “The problem has always been that high-quality flat panel system pricing was too high for many smaller practices."  

Now with the TruDR eSeries™, every practice can afford a flat panel DR system that will optimize both quality of medicine and return on investment.

The TruDR eSeries™  platform of veterinary digital radiography systems is the culmination of merging Sound innovation and the legendary Eklin reliability.  Today veterinarians, regardless of practice size can find the perfect fit, flat panel system for their needs with all of the features to optimize workflow, image quality, and return on investment.
