Actually, we manufacture a complete line of scanners for slides,
transparencies, and X-ray film. Several of our models are capable of
the wide dynamic OD range necessary for many medical and industrial
applications.

Our prices are much more reasonable than our competitors, because we
use our own patented technology to dramatically increase the dynamic
range of a standard CCD. 

Here is an excerpt from some of our literature.

======================================

OmniMedia (TM) Color/Grayscale Scanners for the Macintosh and PC
----------------------------------------------------------------
Allows scanning of virtually any media - reflective or transmissive
media with a maximum resolution of 1200 DPI. Ideal for full color
comps, desktop publishing and grayscale imaging.

If you are looking for a scanner able to capture the wide optical
density range of a radiograph, the "x" series provides the solution.
Laboratory proven, the "x" series provides data that fulfills numerous
scientific and medical applications. SC technology expands optical
density range of scanner even further for high fidelity imaging.


Rayven (TM) Radiographic Scanning Series
---------------------------------------------------------------
With XRS' SC technology combined with an ergonomically designed unit,
the Rayven scanning series is setting the standard in affordable
radiographic digitizing. Ideal for PACS, teleradiology applications
and on-screen analyses. Available in three models with optical density
ranges to meet your specific requirements.
