Micro-X Limited’s updated Rover mobile X-ray system is making its world premiere this week at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting in Chicago (Nov. 30-Dec. 4). Rover aims to deliver improved workflow, imaging performance, and ease of use to radiologists.

The new Rover evolves Micro-X’s proven lightweight, motor-free design, with enhancements including the latest Lumen glass-free high-resolution detector, in-bin charging for improved readiness, a larger high-definition touchscreen interface, improved serviceability, and a more compact stowage footprint for use in constrained clinical environments. Together, these upgrades strengthen the Rover’s role in fast, accurate, point-of-care digital radiography, according to the company.

“Our updated Rover is designed to make clinicians’ work easier and more efficient,” Micro-X CEO Kingsley Hall stated. “By pairing an advanced detector with smarter charging and a redesigned user interface while maintaining the same ultra-lightweight mobility, we’re redefining what’s possible for bedside and point-of-care X-ray imaging.”

Using Micro-X’s proprietary Nano Electronic X-ray Technology, the Rover delivers high-quality digital radiography with exceptional maneuverability, gentle navigation across hospital floors and lifts, and minimal maintenance requirements. The new in-bin charging solution removes the need for external cabling and reduces downtime, ensuring the Rover remains ready when clinicians need it most.

Micro-X is also showcasing at RSNA 2025 two major innovations from its expanding medical imaging pipeline:

  • A full-scale model of the portable Full Body CT scanner—In development with ARPA-H under the PARADIGM program, this next-generation whole-body CT concept explores new deployment models for portable diagnostics.
  • A full-scale model of the Head CT scanner for stroke—Designed for ambulance-deployed stroke imaging, the compact scanner enables immediate assessment wherever patients present. The latest image sets from the prototype will be shown publicly for the first time, with Australian human imaging trials expected to commence shortly, pending final regulatory approvals.

Micro-X Limited is an Australian-based global X-ray technology company pioneering lightweight, mobile, and miniaturized imaging systems using proprietary carbon nanotube (CNT) technology. Micro-X designs and manufactures medical and security imaging products enabling fast, accessible diagnostics worldwide.
