# Portable Diagnostic Imaging The Radio Fast Radiology System Would Reduce Waiting Times in the ER By Amelia Roblin | Published 2012-02-07 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radio-fast-radiology-system References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2012/02/06/xrays-to-go/) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/francois_rybarczyk) Few people have had efficient emergency room experiences. The polar opposite is far more common. The Radio Fast Radiology System is an ingenious technological solution that has the potential to remedy the dilemma of drawn-out visits. Designer Francois Rybarczyk has calculated that patients wait the longest between their initial examination and their [diagnostic imaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diagnostic-imaging-system), which is equivalent to almost half of the total time spent sitting restlessly in [hospital waiting rooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healthcare-technologies). This gap could be reduced to as few as five minutes with the assistance of this [handheld x-ray machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xray-rental-services). The mobile medical unit consists of the display screen tablet and a cord-connected cassette. Easily accessed injuries can be scanned between the two components to produce an instant image at one's seat. The Radio Fast Radiology System can then be set into its docking station that can print a copy of the screening and top up the device's charge. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Handheld Diagnostic Imaging:** Innovative portable diagnostic imaging technology can decrease waiting times in hospital emergency rooms and provide quicker medical imaging solutions. - **Mobile Medical Devices:** With the introduction of mobile medical devices, diagnostic imaging solutions can now be provided at the patient's bedside. - **Instant Imaging Solutions:** Technological advancements in medical imaging have given rise to instant imaging solutions that can provide instantaneous results for diagnostic tests. ### Who This Affects Most - **Medical Technology:** Medical technology companies can invest in handheld diagnostic imaging solutions to develop a more efficient and effective diagnosis and treatment process. - **Emergency Medicine:** With the implementation of handheld diagnostic imaging technology, emergency rooms can improve patient care and reduce waiting times. - **Healthcare Services:** Improved efficiency and accessibility, provide a huge opportunity for healthcare services to adopt new mobile medical devices and instant diagnostic solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mobile X-Ray Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobile-xray-unit.md) - [Cutting-Edge Portable X-Ray Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-xray.md) - [Revolutionary Medical Imaging Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/medical-imaging-systems.md) - [Low-Cost Portable MRI Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-mri-machine.md) - [Portable Brain Scanners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mwi-brain-scanner.md) - [Mobile Healthcare Exam Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handheld-medical-device.md) - [Accessible Ultrasound Imaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultrasound-imaging1.md) - [Prefabricated Modular MRI Suites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/medical-infrastructure-delivery.md) - [Simplified Radiology Report Translators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ezra-reporter.md)
