    CAPABILITIES.
    Since its introduction, the CARESTREAM
    DRX-Evolution has set a benchmark for
    imaging performance in hospitals around
    the world.

    Today, it still offers the power of the
    X-Factor, with a wireless DRX Detector
    that works across virtually all of your
    imaging systems. It still features modular
    design, to fit your individual space,
    workflow and budget. And it still protects
    you from technology obsolescence with
    its future-proof design.
    But now, the Evolution Plus delivers even
    more: a full range of new features and
    options that makes it more powerful,
    more dependable and more affordable
    than ever.

A NEW LOOK
A single glance at the DRX-Evolution Plus
makes it clear that something new and
exciting is going on. Consider its sleek,
contoured lines...dynamic, updated trade
dress...and high-tech LED lighting designed
for both function and aesthetics. All in all,
this upgraded Evolution Plus sports the
contemporary, professional look that defines
21st-century imaging facilities.

MORE THAN SKIN DEEP
The benefits go far beyond its cutting-edge
makeover. New features include a table with
higher weight capacity, enhanced pediatric
capabilities, extended tube-column range for
sites with high ceilings, future-friendly design
to accommodate advanced applications as
they’re released, and more.
