Flatpanel Detectors in Sierra Leone
Available Flatpanel Detectors Models

Flatpanel detectors (FPDs) represent a significant advancement in digital radiography, replacing traditional film-based systems and older image intensifiers. At their core, FPDs are sophisticated electronic devices designed to capture X-ray photons and convert them into a digital image. They utilize a large, thin, flat panel composed of an array of tiny sensing elements (pixels).

When X-rays pass through a patient and strike the detector, these sensing elements react to the varying intensities of the radiation. Two primary types of FPDs exist, each employing a different conversion mechanism:

• Direct Radiography (DR) detectors: These use a photoconductor material to directly convert X-ray photons into electrical charges. These charges are then read out by thin-film transistors (TFTs) to form the digital image.
• Indirect Radiography (IR) detectors: These employ a scintillator material to convert X-rays into visible light. This light is then captured by an array of photodiodes, which convert the light into electrical charges, also read out by TFTs.

Regardless of the type, the fundamental function of an FPD is to efficiently and accurately transform X-ray signals into a high-resolution digital image, allowing for immediate viewing, manipulation, and storage. This digital nature offers numerous advantages over film, including reduced processing time, lower radiation doses, improved image quality with advanced post-processing capabilities, and seamless integration into Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS).

The adoption of Flatpanel Detectors (FPDs) in Sierra Leone is crucial for advancing diagnostic imaging capabilities across a spectrum of healthcare facilities. From large-scale medical centers to specialized clinics, the enhanced image quality, reduced radiation dose, and improved workflow offered by FPD technology can significantly impact patient care and diagnostic accuracy.

At Sierra Leone's leading medical facilities, the seamless integration of advanced imaging technology is paramount. Our expert installation process for flatpanel detectors is designed for minimal disruption and maximum efficiency, ensuring your diagnostic capabilities are enhanced swiftly and reliably.

We begin with a thorough site assessment to guarantee optimal conditions for your new flatpanel detector system. This includes verifying power supply stability, ensuring adequate shielding, and confirming compatibility with your existing imaging infrastructure.

Upon successful site preparation, the flatpanel detectors are carefully transported and delivered to your facility. Our logistics team prioritizes the safe handling and secure transit of these sensitive components.

The installation itself is executed by our certified technicians, who follow a meticulous, step-by-step procedure:

The cost of flatpanel detectors (FPDs) in Sierra Leone can vary significantly based on several factors. These include the detector's technology (e.g., amorphous silicon, direct conversion), its size and resolution, the manufacturer, and any bundled software or warranty packages. Given the current economic landscape and import dynamics in Sierra Leone, FPD prices are typically quoted in United States Dollars (USD) and then converted to the local currency, the Leone (SLL), at the prevailing exchange rate. It is important to factor in potential customs duties, taxes, and shipping costs which can add to the overall landed price. While providing exact figures is challenging due to market fluctuations, one can expect a broad price range for a new, professional-grade flatpanel detector for medical imaging to be anywhere from 15,000,000 SLL to upwards of 80,000,000 SLL and beyond. This range reflects the vast differences in specifications and capabilities available on the market.
