C-Arm Surgical Imaging
Live intraoperative X-ray guidance for fracture fixation, spine and stone surgery.
What This Service Covers
C-arm imaging gives the operating surgeon a live X-ray view during the procedure itself, used most often in fracture fixation, spine instrumentation, urological stone surgery and selected vascular access procedures.
Working from live images rather than a pre-operative scan alone improves the accuracy of implant and screw placement and reduces the time a patient spends under anaesthesia.
Radiation exposure is kept to the minimum needed for the procedure, with shielding for the surgical team and the patient.
