Siemens Medical Solutions' Artis zeego angiography system has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Artis zeego is designed for interventional applications in radiology and cardiology, as well as for the operating room. The system features 2D and 3D applications currently available in the Malvern, PA-based company's Artis zee product line.
In other news, Siemens said it is supporting the joint efforts of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Human Effectiveness Directorate and Kettering Health Network in Ohio by making the Kettering Medical Center a research site for the company's latest medical imaging technology.
The AFRL will share state-of-the-art research facilities and equipment with Kettering, while the University of Dayton Research Institute will support the effort with physicists and other experts.
