When not needed for imaging, the gantry moves to the user- defined park position within seconds, allowing surgeon’s patient access while maintaining the integrity of the sterile field as the O-arm can remain in the surgical field. This makes the O-arm an integral tool for the surgical team striving for the best patient outcomes. The O-arm System has brought intra- operative imaging to a new level, with superior image quality and large field-of-view in both 2D & 3D image sets, providing surgeons with the information they need most, precisely when they need it. Navigate more efficiently than ever before The O-arm System seamlessly integrates with Stealth Station® navigation to reduce X-ray exposure – increasing safety for both OR staff and patients. Surgical Navigation provides the surgeon with information about the patient’s anatomy while reducing the X-ray exposure to patient, surgeon and staff. The advanced navigation user Interface is streamlined to fit the workflow in the OR and to support the surgeon’s work. For spinal surgery, a wide range of dedicated navigated instruments and referencing frame options allow to optimize the use of navigation in each part of the spine. Automatic data transfer of the patient’s 3D data set and auto- matic anatomical registration on the Stealth Station Navigation System is eliminating the need for lengthy patient registration, allowing the surgeon to navigate within seconds after image acquisition, thereby increasing procedural efficiency. With the combination of O-arm and navigation surgeons are able to improve visualization to complete MIS and complex procedures and confirm the accuracy of advanced surgi- cal procedures before the patient leaves the OR. Additional 3D Datasets may be acquired when- ever needed during surgery, making naviga- tion easy to use, more effective and more reliable than ever before. Because trust matters – Trust through quality and reliability Since its market launch in 2006, the O-arm has revolutionized intra-operative imaging.
