United Imaging Unveils Revolutionary uDR® Aurora CX Digital Radiography System

In a significant advancement for medical imaging, United Imaging has officially launched its cutting-edge digital radiography system, the uDR® Aurora CX. Announced on September 29, 2025, this new system aims to integrate artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision, and automation into one of the most essential imaging modalities used in healthcare today.

The uDR Aurora CX is built on the uVERA platform, which encompasses vision-enabled robotics and AI capabilities. A standout feature of this innovative system is the integration of two uAI® Vision Cameras within the tube head, which work in tandem to generate a real-time 3D model of each patient. This functionality allows for fully automated positioning with just a single button press. The system adjusts itself according to the patient's unique body shape and size, ensuring optimal imaging results.

Moreover, the uDR Aurora CX automatically configures collimation and exposure settings personalized for each patient, reducing the guesswork that has historically accompanied traditional radiographic techniques. With these innovations, the system not only enhances the accuracy of diagnostic imaging but also minimizes the time spent on each exam, further improving patient throughput in medical settings.

Another noteworthy element of this system is its embedded AI quality control mechanism, which is seamlessly integrated throughout the X-ray procedure. This system provides real-time feedback on image quality and preventative alerts to technologists. This feature is pivotal in curtailing the necessity for repeat exams and in reducing patient radiation exposure, thereby promoting safer imaging practices overall. Additionally, a retrospective quality analysis feature supplies analytics-driven data that supports departmental quality initiatives, helping healthcare providers maintain top-tier imaging standards.

United Imaging emphasizes that its next-generation AI image processing platform considerably enhances image quality. It offers features such as image enhancement, tissue equalization, and multi-scale denoising, which contribute to achieving high-quality images at lower radiation doses across a diverse patient population.

Dr. Jeffrey M. Bundy, CEO of United Imaging Healthcare North America, expressed excitement regarding the upcoming demonstration of this technology at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference. He noted that the uDR Aurora CX is merely one highlight of a comprehensive product portfolio that will debut this year. “Our range will look significantly different at RSNA,” he said. “This system is a powerful testament to the ongoing investments we're making in the U.S. market.” He also hinted at additional innovative products aimed at addressing current challenges in workforce pressures and healthcare demands.

Founded in 2011, United Imaging is dedicated to pioneering medical products and digital healthcare solutions that span the entire spectrum of imaging diagnosis and treatment. With its North American headquarters located in Houston and multiple subsidiaries around the globe, the company champions its mission of Equal Healthcare for All™.

The uDR Aurora CX epitomizes United Imaging’s commitment to advancing healthcare technology. As it prepares to unveil this groundbreaking system, it also signals its ambitions to expand its presence in the American market, which is increasingly receptive to innovations driven by AI technology. The integration of such intelligent solutions is expected to redefine imaging standards and practices, fostering a new era of efficiency and safety in patient care at healthcare facilities worldwide.
