 Mobility gone digital

Bringing mobile X-ray to

a new level of efficiency

Regarding today’s trends of more efficiency in

hospitals, more and more hospitals are going
filmless and digital systems are in high demand.

Going digital presents a unique opportunity

to optimize the entire clinical workflow in the
hospital – from image acquisition to processing
and archiving.

MOBILETT® has been a success in mobile X-ray

imaging for many years. Following the trend
of achieving more by using less, Siemens has
combined long-time imaging expertise with
innovative research in medical engineering.

With MOBILETT XP Digital we have created a digital

mobile X-ray system with a flat panel detector
that can be seamlessly integrated into standard
clinical processes for instant bedside imaging in
the ward, Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Emergency
Room (ER), Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
and in the Operating Room (OR).

Is high precision imaging

 MOBILETT XP Digital
“How can I still rely on high-speed information
transfer, if I’m always on the move?”

We have integrated compact mobile X-ray imaging, reliable digital flat

panel detector technology and state of the art industrial communication
technology to ensure high speed information processing.

While supporting the relevant DICOM standards, such as Worklist, Send,

Print and MPPS, our MOBILETT XP Digital with its seamlessly integrated
wireless LAN antenna provides secure data access – whenever and
wherever needed.

“Is high precision imaging a question of

physical size?”

With its high generator power of 30 kW (450 mA, 360 mAs) and the
smallest physical size in its class, the MOBILETT XP Digital simply offers
best power per footprint. Exposure times down to 1ms and a constantly
small focal spot size result in excellent image quality.

The system is easy to maneuver and position, giving you fastest patient
access and increased flexibility in your workflow.

“How to harmonize mobility and reliability?”

By continuously improving and fortifying our system’s design and
components, for example with a specially reinforced detector cable in
combination with a tailor-made holder for detector and grid, we are
constantly making the system more robust and reliable.

Due to its constant mobility the system and its components are exposed
to increased wear and tear. We made the system more durable and
improved the ease of use at the same time.

 MOBILETT XP Digital
A system that is part of your workflow –
a system that makes your work flow
Going digital means that examinations can generally
be performed faster and with an optimized clinical
workflow. MOBILETT XP Digital is a digital mobile
X-ray imaging system with flat panel detector
technology and instantaneous digital image display.
Images are instantly available with virtually no time
between exposures. All exposures for any patient –
regardless of size and age – can be taken with one
single digital flat panel detector.
MOBILETT XP Digital was designed always keeping
the importance of a fast and sensible clinical
workflow for efficient and effective patient care
in mind.
An easy start
Patients can be registered manually or via selection
from the DICOM worklist for fast access and fast
evaluation. If previous patient images exist, they
can be recalled from the local image storage.
The touch screen allows fast control of all desired
functions. The intuitive user interface is easy
to understand and operate with several preset
anatomical organ programs just a touch of the
screen away.
The MOBILETT XP Digital’s small footprint, its
counterbalanced swivel arm and the integrated
motor drive makes it very easy to maneuver and
thus the system may easily be positioned at the
patient’s bedside. This high degree of mobility gives
you even faster patient access and makes direct
image control possible.
With its dual source power for exposures, backed
with long life rechargeable batteries and a
conventional power outlet, MOBILETT XP Digital
provides highest comfort in mobile imaging.
2067_MOBILETT_XP_Digital_RZ.indd 6
Get the picture immediately
Immediate viewing of images allows technicians to
perform on-site quality checks and adjustments at
the patient’s bedside.
The self-calibrating high imaging output, up to
30 kW and 360 mAs, enables short exposure times
down to 1 ms – virtually eliminating motion blurring
and resulting in excellent image quality.
High-quality control images are available within
seconds. In addition, MOBILETT XP Digital supports
basic image processing functions, such as
brightness, contrast and edge enhancements
directly on the system. DICOM Send and Print
functionalities enable easy storage or printing of
all X-ray images within the hospital IT network.
The system enables the image data transmission
via wired or wireless LAN access to the hospital
IT system for convenient archiving and fast
documentation. MOBILETT XP Digital can
temporarily store up to 3,000 chest images in
the internal image memory.
The radiologist has instant access to all the
information needed in order to decide on the
appropriate patient therapy. When seconds count –
like in emergency situations – this streamlined
workflow can make the difference in improved
patient care.
Clinical advantages
By supporting the existing DICOM standards like
Worklist, Send, Print, and MPPS, our digital mobile
X-ray room on wheels offers major advantages
in clinical workflow and potentially opens new
clinical applications for mobile X-ray.

 MOBILETT XP Digital

A digital system without compromises

In addition to an optimized clinical workflow,
the compact design, outstanding imaging power,
instantaneous image display and processing as
well as easy maneuverability and positioning,
MOBILETT XP Digital offers many further
advantages.
Going digital means, that manual film processing
(analog or Computed Radiography), cassette
handling, and maintenance of a darkroom and all
involved chemicals are things of the past.

Integrated flat panel detector Holder for detector and grid Dose measurement

The integrated flat detector of
MOBILETT XP Digital produces
high-resolution, sharp imaging for
accurate diagnostics. The specially
reinforced detector cable serves
as the reliable workflow solution
without any compromises. In
combination, the flat panel detector
and its components add sustainable
value to your workflow.
Convenient and clever storage is very
important in mobile X-ray rooms.
Our customized holder for detector
and grid allows easy handling and
protects your valuable equipment.
The optional measurement
chamber for the Dose Area
Product (DAP) provides the
dose information per image.
In combination with Modality
Performed Procedure Step
(MPPS) the DAP value will
be transferred automatically
to the hospital IT system.
This provides you with all
relevant exam information
instantaneously.

Wireless LAN connectivity
With our new optional seamlessly
integrated external WLAN antenna
the access to the wireless hospital IT
infrastructure will be the preferred
solution in order to speed up
workflow and data transmission.
Supporting the common WLAN
standards and with its increased
reach the data connectivity becomes
easy, fast, secure and reliable.
Thanks to high-speed information
technology, image information can
be easily sent to the system in
between patients if needed – without
interrupting the workflow or causing
unnecessary waiting times.

Pediatrics
Remote control
By using the optionally available
remote control radiation dose for
the radiology technologist or
radiographer can be considerably
reduced. The infrared controlled
device allows to control the exposure
process and the collimator lamp
with an increased distance of up to
10.9 m (35.8 ft.) – even through
glass and lead glass. Due to the
proprietary coding no other known
infrared remote system will be
activated accidentally. This provides
a high level of safety for your staff.
Extremities
Giraffe design
With its optional, unique giraffe
design MOBILETT XP Digital is ideally
suited for creating a more relaxing
patient environment. Not only
children will be delighted by
the colorful and friendly visual
appearance. Some grown-ups too
will be less anxious during their
exam when looking into the friendly
giraffe’s face.
