Medium-Format Digital Radiography System

Cuattro ONE‑M, supplied by J3Seven, is a medium-format digital radiography detector designed for large-area orthopaedic imaging. It is ideal for full-spine studies and many long-leg exams, giving you a generous imaging length without the footprint or weight of an ultra-long detector.

Instead of stitching multiple images together, ONE‑M can capture a full-length study in a single exposure when used alone, and can be paired with compatible detectors to extend coverage even further. This supports faster exams, consistent alignment and lower overall dose, while keeping your X-ray room workflow straightforward and efficient.

Why Imaging Teams Choose Cuattro ONE‑M

Right-sized for large-format work: ONE‑M is built around a 17 × 34 inch field of view (about 430 × 860 mm), giving ample coverage for full-spine imaging and many long-leg exams without the size and weight of a full 17 × 51 inch detector.

Single‑exposure spine and long-leg studies: For suitable patients, ONE‑M can complete full-spine and medium long-leg exams in one exposure, reducing motion artefact and simplifying positioning compared with multi‑image stitching workflows.

Extendable field of view when needed: When paired with qualifying 35 × 43 cm (14 × 17 inch) or 43 × 43 cm (17 × 17 inch) wireless detectors, ONE‑M can support single‑exposure long-leg imaging up to roughly 1,270 mm, accommodating taller patients and demanding orthopaedic studies.

Conventional views from the same detector: Operators can select the top or bottom portion of the detector to obtain more conventional weight‑bearing views (equivalent to 43 × 43 cm fields), avoiding the need to swap hardware mid‑exam.

Flexible connectivity: ONE‑M can be used with a simple power and data tether or operated on internal battery power with wireless data transfer, giving you options for permanent rooms, mobile stands and intra‑operative set‑ups.

Room upgrade or new suite: The detector can be retrofitted to qualifying existing X‑ray suites or supplied as part of a complete new installation, helping sites upgrade long‑format capability without a full room replacement.

Supports varied mounting options: Portable and permanent wall stands are available so you can deploy ONE‑M in fixed rooms, mobile environments or in‑theatre applications while maintaining a consistent workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exams is Cuattro ONE‑M best suited to?
Cuattro ONE‑M is primarily designed for full‑spine imaging and medium long‑leg studies. In many cases, it can cover the required anatomy in a single exposure, particularly for paediatric and average‑height adult patients.

How does ONE‑M differ from the full Cuattro ONE detector?
Both detectors share similar technology and pixel pitch. ONE‑M uses a shorter physical length (around 860 mm active area in its medium‑format mode), making it lighter and easier to handle where a full 1,290 mm active length is not always required. Cuattro ONE is focused on full 50‑inch long‑format coverage.

Can ONE‑M be part of a multi‑detector set‑up?
Yes. When combined with qualifying 35 × 43 cm or 43 × 43 cm wireless detectors, ONE‑M can support long‑leg studies up to approximately 1,270 mm in a single exposure.

Does ONE‑M always need to be used in long mode?
No. The detector can be configured to acquire from only the upper or lower portion, effectively behaving like a 430 × 430 mm weight‑bearing panel for more routine views.

Can it be retrofitted into our existing X‑ray suite?
In many cases, yes. ONE‑M is designed so it can be retrofitted to qualifying suites or supplied as part of a new installation. J3Seven can review your current equipment and advise on integration options.

What support does J3Seven provide?
J3Seven offers configuration advice, installation support, applications training and through‑life technical support for Cuattro ONE‑M deployments across Australia and New Zealand.
