Intra Operative 3D Imaging with O-arm™

The O-Arm™ is a patented, mobile, Imaging device used in Surgery to capture 3D and 2D images of the patient anatomy within the Operation Theater. It is designed to be moved like a typical C-Arm X-Ray machine. However, it can take 3D images like a CT machine in addition to the usual 2D images.

A video recording about O-Arm™

“Operating with O-Arm™ brings joy to any spine surgeon. The quality and flexibility of imaging available through O-Arm™ gives great confidence to a Spine surgeon to ensure the best surgical outcome for the patient.”

Why O-Arm™ ?

Intra-op 3D/2D

During the different stages of different Spine surgeries, a surgeon needs 2D and 3D images to ensure the implants are in the most optimum position.

6-degrees of movement

The O-Arm™ can move in 6 different ways, so that your surgeon has maximum flexibility in taking the image in the most desired angle for your surgery.

Dose adjustment

The O-Arm™ has built-in controls that enables your surgeon to adjust the Radiation dose as per the surgical need.

Compatible with Mazor (Spine Robotics!)

O-Arm™ is compatible with Mazor and helps your surgeon make many decisions intra-operatively!

Surgical confirmation

With the ability to take 3D image in the OT, your surgeon can make changes required in the implants before completing the surgery.
Without an O-Arm™, to get a 3D image your surgeon has to wait for a CT image after your surgery is completed. This sometimes leads to an additional correction surgery which in most cases can be avoided with an O-Arm!

How does the O-Arm™ work?

When required during the surgery, the OT Technician opens the gantry and slides the O-Arm™ over the patient on the OT table and then closes the gantry.

A few scouting 2D images are taken and the O-Arm™ is moved accordingly to ensure the O-Arm™ is in the correction position as required by your surgeon. Once in position, the 3D spine is taken to capture the 3D image in 13 seconds.

Once the image is taken and transferred to the Mazor System, the gantry is opened to move the O-Arm™ away from the OT table. Now the O-Arm™ remains parked in the OT till the next imaging requirement.
