Rating of the best negatoscopes for 2022

The negatoscope is a medical device used in hospitals to view radiographic images. What is it for? Its main task is to make it easier for the doctor to study radiographs through transmission and to allow a more accurate and high-quality assessment of the resulting image.

It helps to solve such questions:

• do not make a mistake in the diagnosis;
• prescribe the optimal treatment;
• achieve a complete and prompt recovery of the patient.

Many refer to radiography as a "grandfather" method, but, despite its "advanced age", it has no equal in the diagnosis of many diseases. Of course, now you will not find old devices that are bulky and difficult to maintain. They were replaced by high-performance computer systems that allow for high-precision image analysis, but their cost is too high to place such equipment everywhere. Therefore, both in provincial towns and small towns, and in prestigious medical centers of megacities, old-style X-ray machines, only slightly improved, are still held in high esteem.And the negatoscopes presented to them to help.

Characteristics of a quality negatoscope

Such devices should include a fluorescent or LED lamp with a power of 1000 to 1500 watts. Models equipped with two lamps are produced. Thanks to them, even heavily darkened films can be carefully examined. It will be convenient to work on the device if it is possible to smoothly adjust the level of illumination and brightness of the image. An important role is also played by detachable screens, which make it possible to evaluate films of various sizes.

Structural elements of classical negatoscopes:

Name	Functions
Frame	Manufactured from high strength steel, plastic or aluminum coated. It is durable and looks aesthetically pleasing.
Equipment	Designed for adjustment.
Photo holder	These can be comfortable rollers that allow manipulation using only one hand.
Electronic components	The light is supplied by LEDs, which are considered durable and energy efficient. Thanks to them, you can adjust the brightness, reduce the strain on the doctor's eyes. It is configured using the control panel.
Acrylic (viewing) glass	LGP is applied to its surface - a matrix visually similar to a honeycomb. This allows you to evenly illuminate images, get a contrasting and clear image, and correctly interpret the data. Accurate diagnostics depends on the quality of the matrix.
Diffuser	Helps to diffuse light so that it is evenly distributed throughout the glass.
Mounting fittings	Designed to secure equipment to the surface.

The device is attached to a vertical surface, for example, to a wall, and therefore special holes are provided at the back. But it can also be used on a horizontal surface. How does the device work? The light passes through the glass and the picture, while being scattered, which allows you to get accurate information. The brightness of the glow and the presence of shutters for diaphragming the surface make it convenient to analyze frames.

Modern equipment has liquid crystal displays that are powered by batteries or from the mains. They are also equipped with fluorescent lamps, which do not allow the image to be distorted by constant flicker. This device heats up quickly and is ready to use in minutes. It is much more expensive than their first counterparts.

How to choose a device

Selection criteria may vary. Some pay attention to the average price, others choose functionality, others study the rating of the best manufacturers and their new products, and for the fourth, the main thing is the popularity of models. Here, advice and recommendations will not always help.When choosing a specific model of such medical equipment, you must first determine what it will be used for and what tasks to solve.

For the clinic, you can purchase a single-frame device at an affordable price. It is enough to analyze one image. For tomograms and radiographs in specialized medical institutions, it is necessary to purchase multi-frame devices that make it possible to follow the course of the disease in dynamics.

In order to avoid mistakes when choosing, you need to carefully study other characteristics of the device. The brightness of the light plays an important role. The higher it is, the radiologist will be able to get more information about the person's condition. It is better to choose a device that allows you to change the brightness of the backlight. And each doctor proceeds from his preferences. An important point is the uniformity of the backlight. If spots and streaks appear on the screen, then the radiologist will have problems studying the image due to excessive strain on the eyes, which can lead to incorrect conclusions and poor treatment.

What else is worth paying special attention to? On the possibility of using the device in mammography. In this case, the device must be produced with a special function. When conducting mammography, images should be obtained with greater density and increased contrast. Therefore, increased requirements are imposed on such equipment, such as:

• the presence of curtains;
• allow you to adjust the brightness of the backlight;
• color temperature - not less than 6500K;
• glow brightness indicator - 7000 cd / sq.m .;
• display dimensions - 18 x 24 cm or 24 x 30 cm.

Scope of a negatoscope

Today, such equipment is widely used in medicine. The main areas are:

1. Traumatology.The device allows you to identify dislocations, fractures, helps to detect a change in the height of the intervertebral discs, to identify areas where the level of calcium salts is low, affected by metastases due to the development of cancer.
2. Oncology. Diagnosis of malignant and benign formations, detection of metastases.
3. Endocrinology and therapy. Determines the location of inflammation of the internal organs, detects deviations in the development of organs.
4. Neurosurgery and neurology. Detection of hematomas in the region of the brain in trauma and stroke.
5. Dentistry. Diagnosis of diseases of the teeth and jaw bones, detection of inflammation and accumulation of pus in the root canals, which will make it possible to avoid medical errors during filling.
6. Mammography. It will allow you to correctly decipher the data of X-ray examination of the mammary glands, and as for radiosurgery and radiology - to analyze the data of radiographic images during ultrasound diagnostics, radiography, fluorography, radiography, magnetic resonance imaging.
7. Gynecology. It makes it possible to correctly determine the patency of the fallopian tubes, and identify the reasons for the impossibility of conception.

If there is a need to purchase a negatoscope, then the question becomes: “Which one is better to buy?” First, you should study the overview of popular models, familiarize yourself with the types of products offered, determine the scope of their use, dimensions, read reviews.

According to buyers, the best devices should be made of high-strength material, be durable and be present in the rating of quality goods. The manufacturer can be any, both foreign and domestic. Which company is better to make a purchase, everyone decides for himself.There are inexpensive, but noteworthy models.

Where to buy the selected device? Currently, the market for the sale of this type of medical equipment is developed. There is a network of specialized stores where you can purchase both expensive and budget equipment. You can order products online in the online store, having previously studied the information, what it is, its description, how much it costs, advantages and disadvantages.
