AGFA CRMD 4.0 General Cassette w/ Imaging Plate 18 x 24

Agfa CRMD 4.0 General Computed Radiography Cassette (18 x 24 cm)

The Agfa CRMD 4.0 is a professional-grade computed radiography (CR) cassette engineered for high-throughput diagnostic imaging. This 18 x 24 cm (7 x 9.5 inch) cassette is the ideal size for orthopedic extremity work and pediatric imaging. It comes pre-loaded with a high-performance MD4.0 General Imaging Plate, known for its wide dynamic range and excellent signal-to-noise ratio, ensuring crisp diagnostic detail even at lower dose exposures.

Designed for the rigors of a busy radiology department, the CRMD 4.0 features a high-impact ABS body with rubberized corners to absorb shocks and an antistatic felt lining to protect the phosphor plate from dust and artifacts. The built-in 150 µm lead backscatter shielding ensures superior image contrast by preventing unwanted radiation from fogging the plate during exposure.

Key Features

• Manufacturer: Agfa HealthCare

• Model: CRMD 4.0 (General)

• Cassette Size: 18 x 24 cm (7 x 9.5 inches)

• Imaging Plate: Pre-loaded MD4.0 Phosphor Plate

• Shielding: Built-in ~150 µm lead backscatter protection

• Construction: Ribbed ABS with rubber-protected corners

• Compatibility: Fully compatible with Agfa CR digitizers, including:

  • CR 30-X / CR 30-Xm

  • CR 25.0 / CR 35.0

  • CR 75.0 / CR 85.0

Clinical & Operational Advantages

• Extremity Specialization: The 18x24 format is the gold standard for imaging small joints (wrists, ankles) where high detail is required to visualize fine bone trabeculae.

• Smart-ID Integration: Features an embedded memory chip and contactless RF identification, allowing the Agfa digitizer to automatically track plate age, usage cycles, and patient data.

• Artifact Prevention: The internal antistatic felt lining prevents static discharge that can cause "light spots" or artifacts on the digital image.

• Enhanced Contrast: The lead backing reduces secondary radiation (scatter) from the Bucky or exam table, resulting in a cleaner image with better grayscale separation.

Condition

• Status: Used – Operational.

• Functional Assessment: The cassette has been visually inspected for mechanical integrity. It cycles correctly, and the memory chip communicates as intended.

• Note: As with all used CR plates, the imaging phosphor may have minor surface wear. Facilities are encouraged to perform a "Primary Erasure" cycle and a flat-field calibration upon receipt to ensure optimal image quality.

• Cosmetic Status: Shows visible signs of clinical use, including minor surface scuffs or technician markings. Rubber corners and latches are intact.

Warranty

• ✔ Primis "Data-Ready" Guarantee

  We guarantee the Agfa CRMD 4.0 cassette will be recognized by your compatible Agfa digitizer. If the cassette fails to load or the RF chip is unreadable upon arrival, Primis Medical will provide a full refund or replacement.
