Adirondack Health enhances imaging services with state-of-the-art fluoroscopy upgrade

Adirondack Health is proud to announce a major technology upgrade in its medical imaging department with the installation of the Luminos Agile Max Fluoroscopy Unit, replacing equipment that had been in service since 2009. This vital advancement was made possible thanks to the generosity of community donors through the Elevate Health Together Annual Fund Campaign.

Serving more than 2,000 patients annually, fluoroscopy is a critical diagnostic tool that allows real-time imaging of internal structures for a wide range of procedures.

“The new fluoroscopy equipment will allow us to deliver safer, faster, and more accurate imaging,” said Director of Medical Imaging Jim Sabin. “Patients will benefit from improved comfort and lower radiation exposure, while the reliability of the updated technology will ensure uninterrupted care.”

The Luminos Agile Max enhances image quality while reducing radiation exposure, improving both patient and staff safety. It also enables Adirondack Health to expand its capabilities and offer a more seamless experience for patients undergoing procedures such as GI studies, joint injections, speech therapy and more.

This investment reflects Adirondack Health’s ongoing commitment to strengthening rural healthcare, a growing challenge across the country. As the only full-service health system within the Adirondack Park, Adirondack Health serves a wide geographic area, ensuring that both year-round residents and the many visitors who travel to the region each year have access to high-quality care—right here, close to home.

“This upgrade represents more than just new equipment—it’s a reflection of our commitment to providing the highest standard of care,” said Heather Bumsted, chair of the Adirondack Health Foundation Board. “We are so grateful to the donors who help make this possible.”

 While the new fluoroscopy unit marks an exciting step forward, fundraising efforts are still underway to fully support this upgrade—as well as the next critical need. The Elevate Health Together Annual Fund Campaign continues through Dec. 31, 2025, with a current focus on raising funds to purchase additional knee replacement instrumentation for Adirondack Health’s MAKO Robotic Surgery System. This investment will allow more patients to benefit from minimally invasive, highly precise joint replacement surgery, helping the health system meet rising demand and improve outcomes.

“Donor support makes innovation like this possible,” said Annual Fund Coordinator Emily Moulton. “When you give to the Annual Fund, you’re helping to bring the best technology, comfort, and care to our patients—close to home. Together, We Can Elevate Health.”
