Battery-powered mobile DR X-ray systems for bedside, ICU, ED and OR imaging from Fujifilm, Konica Minolta and more.

About Portable X-Ray Imaging

ARRAD supplies new and refurbished portable X-ray systems engineered for bedside, ICU, emergency department, operating room, and long-term care imaging. Modern mobile DR units combine battery-powered drive, high-frequency generators, and wireless flat-panel detectors to deliver diagnostic-quality images at the patient's bedside without transporting them to a fixed radiography room.

Our portable X-ray inventory includes compact units for tight NICU bays and crowded EDs, mid-range mobile systems for general inpatient rounds, and premium platforms with collapsible columns and advanced image processing. Every unit ships fully tested with wireless detector, acquisition workstation, and flexible warranty options.

Portable X-Ray - Frequently asked questions

What buyers ask about portable x-ray equipment.

What is the difference between a portable and a mobile X-ray system?

+

In practice the terms are used interchangeably - both refer to battery-powered or AC-line X-ray units on wheels that roll to the patient. Some vendors use "portable" for smaller, lighter units and "mobile" for full-size systems with motorized drive. ARRAD stocks both classes and will match the unit to your floor layout, patient volume, and imaging mix.

How long does a portable X-ray battery last on a full charge?

+

Most modern portable DR units deliver 8 to 12 hours of mixed driving and imaging on a single charge, depending on kW output and number of exposures. Fujifilm FDR Go iQ and Go PLUS, and Konica mKDR Xpress all support a full shift of inpatient rounds. ARRAD provides battery condition and cycle count on every refurbished portable we sell.

Can a portable X-ray unit produce the same image quality as a fixed room?

+

With current-generation wireless DR detectors (Fujifilm D-EVO II, Konica AeroDR) and high-frequency generators, portable units produce diagnostic image quality comparable to fixed rooms for most bedside exams - chest, abdomen, and extremity. Fixed rooms still have an edge for high-kW studies and specialized positioning. ARRAD will match the unit to your clinical requirements.

What should I look for in a refurbished portable X-ray system?

+

Key checkpoints are battery health and cycle count, generator output consistency, detector condition and calibration status, drive motor and steering function, and software version. ARRAD tests all of these before listing any refurbished portable and provides the results in writing on the quote.

Does ARRAD service portable X-ray systems after purchase?

+

Yes - ARRAD provides nationwide service contracts on Fujifilm, Konica Minolta, and other portable DR platforms, including preventive maintenance, detector exchange, battery replacement, and emergency on-call support.
