Multitom RaxMove beyond traditional X-ray
Features & Benefits
Precise insights through unique automation
Multitom Rax offers unparalleled precision and flexibility in positioning, allowing projections from nearly all angles and unique automated workflows that make musculoskeletal insights feasible in clinical routine. And all that while saving dose.
- Extended1 anatomical coverage
Benefit from unique automation with enhanced RAXortho2 acquisition modes built on the well-known SmartOrtho tilting2 technique. - More precision1
Obtain accurate MSK insights through precise system and patient positioning easily. Twin Robotic arms give you more flexibility through projections from nearly all angles. - Right dose
Use the right dose for every patient: Choose proven technology with dedicated low-dose and pediatric organ programs to help reduce necessary radiation, limit unnecessary radiation and minimize the risk of over-exposure.
Low-dose scoliosis SmartOrtho2 – significantly lower dose due to optimized parameters
Cross-table SmartOrtho2 lateral – for lateral full spine images of a patient in supine position
Transversal SmartOrtho2 shoulder panorama standing – for panorama stress view
SmartOrtho2 standing – up to 4 images perfomed easily with patient in natural weight-bearing position
SmartOrtho2 lying – up to 4 images perfomed easily with patient in supine position
Low-dose scoliosis SmartOrtho2 – significantly lower dose due to optimized parameters

Low-dose scoliosis SmartOrtho2 – significantly lower dose due to optimized parameters
"In particular, the fact that panoramic images can be taken, where, for example, both shoulder joints can be seen in one image under stress, is of immense advantage to us and important for traumatology in deciding whether there is a surgical indication. This is a big step forward."3

Efficient workflows around your patients
Advanced musculoskeletal imaging requires exact patient and system positioning, complex manual workflow steps. Multitom Rax precisely positions and aligns itself, reducing the need for unnatural patient positioning even in challenging situations like trauma cases. It supports staff and offers barrier-free patient access.
- Faster1, robotic exam setup in clinical routine
Faster setup is made possible by one-touch workflows and virtually unlimited, customizable organ programs that meet your specific requirements. - Refined automated alignment of tube and detector
Thanks to RAXalign and RAXtrack, detector and tube align automatically and stay aligned when repositioning the system. The predictable and very compact virtual U-arm movement quickly shifts the system 90° around the patient ideal for emergency departments. - Less patient repositioning for enhanced care
The system moves around the patient, so repositioning them is no longer necessary. And flexible workflows for wheelchairs, trolleys, and stretchers mean that patients need not be transferred onto the system's table at all.
Trolley workflows with RAXdetector benefits –
no patient transfer onto table
Motorized system and preconfigured positions –
Significantly faster positioning performance1
RAXalign and RAXtrack –
support for complex musculoskeletal exams
Virtual U-arm –
rapid changeover from a.p. to lateral
Positioning flexibility and free patient access –
better for everyone

„With the new version of the Multitom Rax we have noticed an improvement in speed, in the positioning of the patients, the workflows are smoother and the daily routine of the MTRA is much easier.”3

Comprehensive diagnosis with multiple procedures
Thanks to its modular design, Multitom Rax can be quickly configured to suit your and your patients' demands. Starting with precision radiography, it also allows 3D bone imaging2 as well as fluoroscopic2 and interventional imaging2 for functional assessment.
- More informed diagnosis and treatment planning4
Acquire diagnostically relevant 3D bone imaging with our optimized Real 3D2 for improved image quality, more stable patient positioning, fewer artefacts, and streamlined, faster exams. The new Real 3D Hi-Res2 functionality is designed to get even higher spatial resolution for images of the hand, wrist, and elbow. - Expanded4 orthopedic capabilities
Perform fluoroscopy2 and minor interventions2 for functional diagnosis of joints, fracture, and luxation repositioning or needle guidance in musculoskeletal procedures such as contrast and drug injections into joint spaces, as well as catheter or tube placements. - Enhanced flexibility4 and independence
By offering 2D and 3D imaging on a single system along with complementary imaging results from fluoroscopic examinations, Multitom Rax gives you more independence.
Fluoroscopy2 and interventions2 for orthopedic specialists – ideal for a range of indications
Real 3D2 weight-bearing imaging – enhance diagnosis and surgical planning
Real 3D2 extremities lying – easier, more comfortable positioning

"Our trauma imaging for wrists and feet has been completely shifted to Multitom Rax. This frees up 5 to 6 slots a day on the multi-detector CT which can then be used for other types of imaging tasks."3
