- This equalizing x-ray filter reduces overexposure to the cervical spine to produce a balanced density from C-1 to T-1
-
Application for lateral cervical spines with CR @ 72 inches to increase information on the lower cervical and upper thoracic, very often reducing the need for a swimmer view "Our success rate for demonstrating C-7- T-1 on trauma C-spines has greatly improved."

- The x-ray filter increases visual detail through additional coning (see photo). The lead coning rails assure proper coning at 40 inches. It creates a border one inch wide on the length of the image.

"We have not repeated one cross table lateral hip or even had to post-process in over a dozen cases."
