The fight against Tuberculosis (TB) in Nigeria has long faced a persistent hurdle: accessibility. Consequently, for many in remote areas, the journey to a diagnostic center was often longer than the illness itself could wait
To break this barrier, the Global Fund-supported PDX IMPACT Project was launched. Spearheaded by KNCV Nigeria, this initiative wasn’t just a small step forward; it was a nationwide technological leap designed to bring life-saving diagnostics directly to the communities that needed them most.
In a landmark partnership with Fujifilm, Uni-medical played a pivotal role in deploying the tools necessary to change the course of the disease across all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.
The Power of Portability: 70 Machines, One Mission
The heartbeat of this project lies in the hardware. Uni-medical successfully supplied and facilitated the installation of 70 Fujifilm FDR Xair handheld X-ray machines.
Nevertheless, technology is only as effective as the hands that hold it. To ensure long-term success, our teams conducted comprehensive, hands-on training for frontline healthcare workers, bridging the gap between advanced engineering and local clinical excellence.
Key Features of the Fujifilm FDR Xair
- Ultra-Portable: Weighing only 3.5 kg, its compact design allows for rapid imaging in confined spaces or directly in patients’ homes.
- Easy Setup: The lightweight build ensures quick, effortless mounting onto its support stand.
- Integrated Storage: The hand switch attaches securely to the main unit, simplifying transport and preventing accidental damage or loss.
Forging a Healthier Nigeria: Our Commitment to Diagnostic Excellence
At the heart of our mission is a drive to close the gap between medical innovation and patient care. Therefore, we are doing more than distributing hardware. By facilitating the deployment of advanced imaging solutions like the Fujifilm FDR Xair, we equip Nigeria’s healthcare heroes with the precision and mobility they need to intercept disease early.
