Incorporating the latest in digital technology, the VMI 5100MS delivers full 16 bit performance at a 50 micron resolution. The VMI 5100MS can scan round, square or rectangle imaging plates; literally any size up to a 14 × 17 inch format. The flat, single path makes the use of either a hard cassette or soft, flexible cassette, a reality in a single CR system that can handle any size imaging plate. This is the system that finally delivers a complete replacement for film applications; delivering film like quality at all energies. The VMI 5100MS meets the most stringent image quality requirements of industry.
