The Fluoroscan InSight FD Mini C-arm imaging system from Hologic is designed to facilitate greater positioning, flexibility and convenient mobility. The system’s flat detector enables imaging of long bones as its rotating detector and collimator enhance surgical positioning. The C-arm is designed with a forward tube source and has a full 120° range of motion, both forward and back, for excellent maneuverability and flexibility. Hologic’s Fluoroscan InSight FD Mini C-arm imaging system also reduces radiation exposure by offering a low dose mode that is 34% less dose compared to other systems at 7.5 pulses per second.1 The unit also lowers scatter dose with 50% less scatter at 30 frames per second.2 The system can improve workflow as its customizable imaging parameters can be set for surgeon-specific preferences.
