SPINAL SURGERY IMAGING O-arm Surgical Imaging System

SURGICAL IMAGING FOR SPINAL PROCEDURES

Your surgical team can use intraoperative imaging for optimized procedures. Improved visualization is critical during complex and minimally invasive procedures. The O-arm™ system is a trusted team member to be used before, during, and after surgery.


SURGICAL WORKFLOW

Picture your surgical environment. Picture a surgical imaging system that:

  • Provides you with real-time images
  • Adapts to your surgical workflows
  • Moves fluidly in your OR
  • Exceeds your expectations

The O-arm system’s high quality, versatile imaging provides the information you need to guide your clinical decision making.

ADAPT. INTEGRATE. AUTOMATE.

The O-arm system has been designed to complement your surgical workflow with:

  • Multiple surgical table options
  • Inter-room mobility for concurrent cases
  • On-demand imaging, no need to schedule in advance
  • Robotic controls for repeatable precise gantry orientation
Standard workflow in an OR compared to O-arm workflow

The O-arm system also offers options for workflow efficiencies, including:

  • In procedures where pre-op axial/coronal/sagittal slice data is necessary, it may be possible to use the O-arm system to provide the initial data set
  • Options to improve efficiencies by not requiring the OR to be held while the patient is being scanned in radiology

OPTIMIZED 2D|3D IMAGING PERFORMANCE

Axial, coronal, sagittal and oblique slide data of patient's anatomy.

You need 3D slice data. You need 2D fluoroscopy. You know your surgical needs. You know your procedure. We can help.

2D Imaging

For localization, real-time anatomical updates, and verification.

3D Imaging

Axial, coronal, sagittal, and oblique slice data give you an expanded view of your patient’s anatomy.

Confirmation

View your patient’s image data while they are still on the surgical table. Be assured that your surgical goals are met.

STEALTHSTATION NAVIGATION INTEGRATION

The O-arm system provides the StealthStation™ real-time 3D intraoperative images. You are navigating your patient’s anatomy with instant visual feedback of instrument localization.

AUTOMATIC REGISTRATION

The O-arm system’s automatic registration with the StealthStation provides an integrated and simple process to enable surgical navigation.

SURGEON AND STAFF DOSE AWARENESS

Working together, the O-arm and StealthStation systems eliminate the need to wear lead protective apparel during the navigated steps of the procedure.1,2

DOSE CONSIDERATIONS

The O-arm system offers multiple protocols and manual adjustment to ensure you are getting the right image at the right dose.*
