What is C-arm?

    C-arm is one of the driving technological forces behind the advancement of minimally invasive surgeries. The mobile fluoroscopic imaging system is precise and accurate device that allow for less patient discomfort in a variety of surgical and nonsurgical procedures. The minimal invasiveness with the use of C-arm has helped lead to the increase of more cost-effective outpatient care.C-arm provides patients with minimally invasive, pain-reduced procedures.

      Initially used in general surgery or orthopedic applications, C -arm is now described by both manufacturers and users as highly versatile.

      In fact, recently the usage of c-arm has expanded to include minimally invasive, spinal, general, and orthopedic surgeries; pain management; and cardiac, urology, vascular, and neurovascular applications.

      The c arm allows for lower x-ray doses to be used on patients by magnifying the intensity produced in the output image, enabling the viewer to easily see the structure of the object being imaged.
