The ESC, ACCF, AHA and WHF stipulate that Troponin assays should demonstrate a coefficient of variation (CV) of 10% or less at the 99th percentile of the normal population, which no prior POC device could do. The high sensitivity Meritas test achieves a CV of 10% at 36pg/ml which is the 99th percentile. Results are available patient-side within 15 minutes and the Meritas analyser uses only a single drop of whole blood in a one-step process. This test will, for the first time, allow doctors to evaluate potential MI patients quickly and accurately. With CE marking achieved, Trinity Biotech now intends to release the product for sale in Europe and other carefully selected markets through its specialist cardiology distributor network.

The first truly portable DR system for controlled, low-dose x-ray examinations, the Digiview 250 flat panel digital detector is ideal for the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) and general radiology imaging applications. The Digiview 250 produces high resolution (5.2 lp/mm), high contrast (65,536 gray levels) images in seconds and the technologically advanced, efficient CMOS construction acquires them at the very lowest radiation levels. With Kubtec’s userfriendly suite of enhancement tools, including the ability to access MWL and send multiple images to PACS, the Digiview 250 is a most efficient tool for totally portable low dose imaging. Higher efficiency leads to better quality of care, higher patient throughput, and improved workflow for hospital staff. Easy to handle and designed with the most fragile patients in mind, the Digiview 250 fits into an incubator and with its advanced CMOS construction, requires the shortest exposure time to produce the most detailed, high-contrast images. Designed for portable imaging applications and easily positioned with one hand, it is packaged in a custom-molded housing with a slim cassette and an integrated handle. A cable tether connects the detector to a laptop or PC to acquire and display the images that can be sent wirelessly to PACS. Using less than 10 Watts of power consumption, the Digiview 250 runs off a standard AC power adapter or even a battery pack.

Featuring an internal detector, the Cobia Flex enables the connection of different probes and ion chambers, and has built in mAs. The measured values can be read directly from the large and clear display, and stored in the instrument for later reading. The Cobia Flex offers direct reading of mA (tube current) and mAs in a very easy and convienient way by simply plugging in the mAs cables from the instrument into the mAs socket of the X-ray generator. The Cobia Flex has no position dependence, it is simply placed under the beam to make sure the detector area is irradiated. Probes are plugged in as required and the instrument will register their presence. There is no need to reset between measurements, the operator can stay in the control room until all measurements are made. The practical log function makes it possible to read the measurements at any time. The internal detector allows the user to measure dose, dose rate, kV, HVL, TF and Time. Internal mAs is standard but can be deselected if not required. A selection of external probes make the instrument suitable for specific needs. Besides English, several languages such as Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish can easily be selected via the menu. Cobia Flex is calibrated by an accredited X-ray lab and comes with an automatic 2-year manufacturer’s warranty when purchased new, with the option of an extended warranty of up to 10 years.
