FYI: This standalone, compact CT unit fits in a standard clinic exam
room and is designed to help orthopedic surgeons diagnose the loca-
tion and severity of upper and lower extremity injuries. The tilt,
height and rotation of the unit's flat-panel image detector are easily
adjustable, and intuitive touchscreen controls guide staff through the
process of capturing 3D images of weight-bearing and non-weight-
bearing joints. The high-quality scans let surgeons assess fractures
and joint injuries in greater detail in order to make more informed
clinical decisions. The unit can be readied for use in 5 minutes and
scans are completed in 10 minutes, says the company.
