Key Features and Benefits of the Orthoscan UC Mini C‑Arm

Feature

Benefit

Feature

6 / 4-Inch Image Intensifier with 1k x 1k Resolution

The Orthoscan UC delivers a 6-inch and 4-inch dual field of view at 1k x 1k digital resolution with a 0.045 mm focal spot.

Benefit

High-Resolution Extremity Imaging for Faster Decisions

Hand surgeons, podiatrists, and orthopedic specialists resolve fine fracture lines, hardware threads, and intra-articular detail at the point of care, which speeds intraoperative decisions and reduces patient referrals out to radiology.

Feature

Half the Size, One-Third the Weight

The Orthoscan UC is approximately half the size and one-third the weight of competing Mini C-Arms.

Benefit

Compact Mini C-Arm Imaging for In-Office Workflow

The UC fits in exam rooms and procedure suites where a Large C-Arm will not. Clinics deliver fluoroscopy in any room without dedicating space to a permanent imaging suite.

Feature

Auto-Adjust for Metal, Motion, and Anatomy

Automatic image processing compensates for metal hardware, patient motion, and varying anatomy without manual fine-tuning by the operator.

Benefit

Lower Radiation Exposure

Operators capture clean images at lower fluoro time and lower dose, which reduces patient and operator radiation exposure and supports the clinic’s radiation safety program.

Feature

PACS-Ready, Windows-Based Workflow

Windows-based imaging software with native DICOM export to PACS, USB and printer.

Benefit

Faster Documentation and Enterprise Integration

Studies move from procedure room into the EMR imaging program in one step, which speeds documentation, supports billing accuracy, and integrates point-of-care imaging into existing radiology workflows.

Feature

Single-Key Custom Keyboard

Custom keyboard maps capture, save, review, and print to dedicated single-press keys.

Benefit

Faster Cases with Hands-on-Patient Workflow

Surgeons and techs operate the system with one hand while the other stays on the patient or surgical field. Faster image capture means faster case turnover.

Read the Full Transcript

Today we're going to look at the Orthoscan UC, also known as the baby blue.

To turn it on, press the power button right here on the side of the machine. It takes about a minute or so to boot up. We're going to show you the articulation of the C-arm.

This machine does not have any wig-wag on it, but it's a nice small compact machine. All right, we're going to show you how to do a little bit of imaging here with our handy dandy hand phantom.

On all mini C-arms, press and hold for three or four seconds to begin with, until you get a nice image like this. And then wait at least a second in between fluoros. This way it allows the machine to process the images properly. You'll see your tagged images down here on this machine.

The X-ray just holds on the foot pedal. Wait until you get a nice image. We're going to image two more times just to fill in our tagged images down here.

You can change your brightness and contrast by pressing these buttons with a plus and a minus. Hit Escape to get out of that. You can zoom your image three times. You can flip it. Negate. You can change your still motion, which is your noise reduction, from two frames to eight frames and 16 frames. Normally we have it at eight frames. You can change your edge.

You can save all. This way, every time you let off the foot pedal, it'll save into the database.

When you're finished imaging, you can go into Case Review. You can see now that they're all saved. You can also choose which ones you'd like to print. The printer is in the back of the machine. You can also send a DICOM if you choose.

Here's your patient info screen. In here you can input the family name, first name, middle name, suffix, birthday, sex, session number, schedule time and date of the surgery, physician's name, procedure description, procedure ID, and your user preferences.

Here's your Recall screen. To choose a case, you can double-click on it. You can also choose which ones you'd like to either save or print by hitting the spacebar. You can also do a DICOM send from here. To get out, just hit the Escape button. If you want to choose another case, just double-click that one.

When you're all finished using the machine, simply press the green power button. Allow it to shut down properly, wait about 10 seconds, you'll hear the fans shut off, and then unplug it from the wall. This allows Windows to shut down properly.

This has been an overview of the Orthoscan UC. If you need sales or service, please give us a call at 1-800-643-2998 or send us an email at info@minicarm.com. Thank you.

What is the difference between the Orthoscan UC and the Orthoscan HD?

The Orthoscan UC uses a 6/4-inch image intensifier at 1k x 1k resolution and is the most compact Mini C-Arm Orthoscan makes. The Orthoscan HD uses a 6/4-inch image intensifier, has an expanded vertical range for beach-chair and standing-knee imaging, and offers more mobility. The UC is ideal for in-office extremity work; the HD adds OR-grade resolution and positioning.

What’s the difference between the Orthoscan UC and the Orthoscan FD?

The Orthoscan UC uses a 6/4-inch image intensifier at 1k x 1k resolution and is the most compact, lightest mini C-arm in the Orthoscan lineup, built for in-office extremity imaging. The Orthoscan FD upgrades to a 6x4-inch flat detector at 2k x 1.5k resolution with sterile-field controls, making it the better fit for operating room procedures. The UC is the value-tier in-office option; the FD is the surgical flat-detector workhorse.
