◼  INTERVENTIONAL SYSTEMS Continuous leadership in lat-panel detectors for mobile C-arms 10 years of lat-panel technology For many reasons – including shrinking reimbursements and an ever- increasing aging population – the demand for eicient high-quality care is rising. This is why 12 percent of all Ziehm Imaging employees dedi- cate their work and expertise in researching and developing innovative hardware, software, clinical applications, and other solutions to enhance clinical beneits in daily clinical routine. One of these innovations came to life in 2006, with the introduction of lat-panel detectors (FD) in a mobile C-arm. Ziehm Imaging initiated the paradigm shift from image intensiiers (I.I.) to lat-panel detec- tors, providing innovative detector technol- ogies for mobile X-ray imaging. Other C-arm competitors followed, conirming the trend by implementing amorphous silicon (aSi) lat-panel detectors in their mobile systems. Now, 10 years later, Ziehm Imaging is continuing to drive innovation with its latest lat-panel detectors. The company is setting new standards in intraoperative visualization by delivering the best image quality while minimizing dose. Ziehm Imaging’s lat-panel detectors identify more anatomical structures than con- ventional C-arms with image intensiiers, increasing surgical eiciency. With the introduction of CMOS tech- nology as an alternative to aSi detectors, Ziehm Imaging reairms its innovation leadership by reducing the compromise between the image quality of FD technol- ogies and the cost eiciency of I.I. systems. 46 Ziehm Vision FD – Equipped with the latest CMOS (cid:31)at-panel detector BENEFITS OF FLAT-PANEL TECHNOLOGY IN A NUTSHELL • Improved image quality through distortion free visu- alization of even the smallest anatomical structures • Optimal contrast of soft tissues and bones • Additional (cid:31)eld of view thanks to the square shape of the detector • Ergonomic patient access and improved view of the surgical (cid:31)eld through compact detector design • Easy positioning thanks to signi(cid:31)cantly larger C-arm opening and up to 165° orbital rotation Imaging’s technological “I am convinced that our latest lat-panel detec tor generation further strengthens Ziehm leadership by combining outstanding image quality and eicient worklow. Overall, our CMOS lat-panel detector is an excellent package ofering more possibilities and beneits for the clinician while keeping dose levels minimized.” said Klaus Hörndler, CEO of Ziehm Imaging. www.ziehm.com RADBOOK 2017
