TRIMAX TX55 Laser Imager

Film Types
The TRIMAX TX55 Laser Imaging System prints on general purpose and
mammography TRIMAX medical film.

Intended Use
The TRIMAX TX55 Laser Imaging System is intended to provide high-resolution
hard copy images from digital imaging source output signals. The device is
intended for use with TRIMAX media and will interface with a variety of digital
modalities, including, but not limited to, CR (Computed Radiology), DR (Digital
Radiology), CT (Computerized Tomography), MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging),

true geometric size images. The images are to be used for medical diagnosis and
referral to physicians and their patients.
