Siemens Healthineers has completed the first U.S. install of Ciartic Move, a self-driving, mobile C-arm.
Tahoe Forest Health System in Truckee, CA, installed the device. Ciartic Move standardizes 2D fluoroscopic and 3D cone-beam CT imaging for surgeons and operating room teams. It is designed for orthopedic, trauma, and spine surgery, but can also be used for thoracic, vascular, cardiovascular, and general surgery and for urology and interventional pulmonology, the company said.
The system can store up to 12 procedure-specific positions and related imaging parameters and can be used remotely with a wireless control, according to the firm.
