OSWEGO, N.Y. — Oswego Health says it has installed an advanced, dual-use radiography and fluoroscopy imaging system that will help doctors get real-time X-ray images of the anatomy.
The Luminos Agile Max is the first patient-side system that offers physicians advances in both fluoroscopy and radiography that “can meet the diverse health-care needs of an evolving community,” Oswego Health said in a release.
Fluoroscopy is the type of X-ray image that shows a continuous image on a monitor, much like an X-ray movie, as described on the website of the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). Radiography is a “broad term that covers several types of studies that require the visualization of the internal parts of the body using x-ray techniques,” the FDA website said.

“This dual capability expands the use of our room to meet the mix of radiography and fluoroscopy exams we see today, and the mix we expect to see in the future,” David Ruel, senior director of ancillary services, said. “The MAXswap with MAX wi-D and MAX mini detectors allow us to use the same detectors on our other Siemens Max systems and makes for a smarter investment.”
The Luminos Agile Max is a product of Siemens Healthineers, per the release.
