THE MODULAR DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM

ri-former®LED – the modular diagnostic system by Riester – optimal flexibility for

hospitals and medical practices. The diagnostic station modules can be combined
individually to suit the requirements and location. Thanks to its innovative design it is
variably extendable to the right and the left. The basic ri-former® module is available
with one handle and can be supplemented with up to 4 more handle modules. The
advantages of the ri-former® system can be seen in its versatile combination of options.
with its centralized electrical power supply, the ri-former® offers the reliability required
for the hectic day-to-day atmosphere of hospitals and medical practices. This guarantees
cost savings and eliminates the need for batteries and rechargeable batteries, which is
good for the environment.
Now also available with mobile stand or as an anesthesia model for fixation on rail
systems.
