X-ray Grids & Cassettes in Lesotho
Available X-ray Grids & Cassettes Models

In diagnostic imaging, X-ray grids and cassettes are fundamental components working in tandem to produce high-quality diagnostic radiographs. A cassette is a light-tight container that houses radiographic film or, more commonly today, a digital detector (CR plate or DR panel). Its primary function is to protect the sensitive imaging medium from light and physical damage, while ensuring precise alignment during X-ray exposure.

An X-ray grid is a critical accessory, typically placed between the patient and the cassette/detector. It consists of a series of thin, radiopaque lead strips interleaved with radiolucent spacer material. The purpose of a grid is to absorb scatter radiation – unwanted X-rays that have been deflected from their original path after interacting with the patient's tissues. Uncontrolled scatter radiation can degrade image quality by reducing contrast and obscuring fine details, making diagnosis more challenging. The grid's focused design allows primary X-ray beams to pass through to the detector while effectively attenuating the divergent scatter radiation, thereby significantly improving image contrast and diagnostic clarity.

In Lesotho, the demand for high-quality X-ray grids and cassettes spans a diverse range of healthcare facilities. From large, tertiary referral centers to smaller district hospitals and specialized diagnostic imaging clinics, these essential components are critical for producing clear, diagnostic X-ray images. The type and volume of need will vary based on the facility's size, patient volume, and the complexity of imaging procedures performed.

Our commitment to delivering seamless integration extends to the installation of your new X-ray grids and cassettes. We understand that efficient workflow is paramount in medical imaging, and our streamlined installation process ensures minimal disruption to your operations in Lesotho. Our experienced technicians follow a structured approach, from initial site assessment to final calibration, guaranteeing optimal performance and longevity of your equipment.

Before the physical installation, a thorough site preparation phase is conducted. This involves evaluating the existing X-ray room environment, ensuring adequate space, appropriate power supply, and confirming compatibility with your current X-ray system. We will work closely with your facility staff to identify the best placement for the grid and cassette, considering patient positioning and diagnostic needs. Delivery of the new X-ray grids and cassettes is handled with care, ensuring they arrive at your Lesotho facility in pristine condition. Our technicians then proceed with the installation, which typically involves securely mounting the grid within the X-ray beam path and ensuring proper alignment with the X-ray tube and detector. For cassettes, the installation focuses on their integration with the imaging system, whether digital or analog, and ensuring smooth insertion and removal.

The cost of X-ray grids and cassettes in Lesotho can vary significantly depending on whether you are purchasing new or refurbished equipment, as well as the specific features and brand. For new X-ray grids, you can expect prices to range broadly from approximately LSL 3,000 to LSL 15,000 or more. This variation is driven by factors such as grid ratio, focus-to-film distance, material, and whether it's a specialized grid for specific imaging modalities. Similarly, new cassettes can range from LSL 1,000 to LSL 5,000, with prices influenced by material (e.g., aluminum vs. composite), size, and whether they are designed for film-screen or digital imaging systems.

For those seeking more budget-friendly options, refurbished X-ray grids and cassettes offer a viable alternative. Refurbished grids typically fall within the range of LSL 1,500 to LSL 8,000, while refurbished cassettes can be found for LSL 500 to LSL 2,500. It's crucial to ensure that any refurbished equipment has been thoroughly inspected and tested by a reputable supplier to guarantee its performance and safety for diagnostic imaging.
