In busy clinical environments such as intensive care units, emergency departments and inpatient wards, mobile imaging plays a vital role in patient care. Clinicians need fast, reliable information at the point of care often for patients who are too unwell to be moved. HSL is proud to support this need by distributing Konica Minolta’s AeroDR TX across the UK and Ireland, introducing Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) to mobile X-ray.

Unlike traditional mobile X-ray systems that produce a single static image, DDR captures a rapid sequence of images over time, creating a dynamic view of anatomy in motion. This allows clinicians to visualise physiological movement such as lung expansion, diaphragmatic motion and changes in airflow directly at the bedside. The result is functional insight that goes beyond anatomy alone, delivered using a workflow that fits seamlessly into routine radiographic practice.

The AeroDR TX has been designed to make this advanced capability practical in everyday clinical settings. Compact, manoeuvrable and wireless, the system enables radiographers to perform both static and dynamic imaging using the same mobile unit, without transferring patients to an imaging department. This is particularly valuable for critically ill or immobile patients, where minimising movement can reduce risk, improve comfort and save valuable clinical time.

By combining DDR with mobile radiography, AeroDR TX supports more informed clinical decision-making while maintaining low radiation dose and efficient examination times. For imaging teams, the technology feels familiar to use, yet opens the door to new ways of assessing patient physiology, especially in acute and critical care pathways where speed and insight matter most.

To help NHS Trusts fully explore the potential of this technology, HSL is offering an in-Trust education programme titled DDR Insight Event: Mobile X-Ray Education Session. This CPD-accredited session is designed to give radiographers, clinicians and imaging leaders the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with AeroDR TX and understand how Dynamic Digital Radiography can be applied in real clinical scenarios.

Delivered on site at your Trust, the DDR Insight Event combines live system demonstrations with practical discussion around workflows, use cases and clinical benefits. Attendees can engage directly with the technology, ask questions, and build confidence in how DDR could support patient care within their own departments.

By bringing this education directly to Trusts across the UK and Ireland, HSL aims to make next-generation mobile imaging accessible, practical and clinically relevant. Whether your organisation is exploring DDR for the first time or looking to expand its understanding of advanced mobile X-ray capabilities, the DDR Masterclass offers a valuable opportunity to experience this innovation first-hand.
