Medical Imaging

X-Ray, MRI Systems, CT Scanners, and Ultrasound equipment are high power, complex systems that generate immense heat. Subsystems like RF Amplifiers and Compressors must be cooled for consistent system operation and reliability. Leverage Boyd’s decades of innovation in imaging cooling to increase thermal density and efficiency, helping improve imaging system speed and accuracy while reducing energy consumption and total cost of operation. Innovative active and passive cooling technologies are right sized for the application’s thermal density challenges and serviceability. Lightweight, low profile, rugged liquid cooling systems, cold plates, heat exchangers, and high efficiency encapsulated spreaders enable smaller, quieter, lighter imaging thermal systems for better performance in a compact format capable of withstanding exceptional gravitation force. This means that imaging system designers have additional design space within the application to include new components or features, and thermal systems can reliably withstand imaging subsystem rotational forces. Boyd’s cooling solutions can also actively target to increase performance while eliminating required use of fans to improve reliability, reduce serviceability requirements, and lower system noise for greater patient comfort.
