X-ray Diffraction Imaging 
Bio/medical Systems

Ever since their discovery in 1895, X-rays have been used to provide patients with improved medical care and have given doctors tools for better understanding disease

X-Ray

While traditional, transmission X-ray images do a wonderful job at some tasks (like diagnosing broken bones)...

...these transmission X-ray images can be misleading or incapable of delivering the information needed for an accurate diagnosis (like in evaluating cancer)

Quadridox's X-ray Diffraction Imaging systems go beyond traditional X-ray imagery to provide the information needed to make accurate and timely diagnoses
