MEDFORD, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Carestream Health’s focus on the radiology profession has earned it the No. 1 market position for its DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film, resulting in the production of more than one billion square meters of this and other specialty films at its White City, Oregon facility—enough film to circle the earth 70 times.
CARESTREAM DRYVIEW film for medical imaging use is sold in more than 140 countries. It contains more than 25 different components, including nanoparticles, with four layers coated simultaneously on the top of a PET film base and two layers on the back. The six-layer DRYVIEW film is coated in one pass at a rate of hundreds of feet per minute with in-line quality inspection to meet FDA-regulated Class 1 medical device requirements.
