Ziehm Imaging Awarded for Mobile C-Arm for Interventional Radiology Market

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 28 Nov 2007
The 2007 Frost & Sullivan Technology Leadership of the Year award in the European mobile C-arm for interventional radiology market was conferred on Ziehm Imaging (Nuremberg, Germany) for creating innovative technologies such as object detected dose control (ODDC), which in conjunction with the company's expertise in radiologic imaging, has supported advancements in the field of image-guided intervention.

Ziehm Imaging's ODDC technology significantly reduces and suppresses image artifacts and provides excellent imaging quality using the lowest possible radiation doses. More...
This unique technology also allows for real-time motion detection and makes automatic adjustments to reduce noise levels and adjusts the fluoroscopy pulse frequency according to the level of motion in the image.

"A notable feature in ODDC is the real-time image control with 3 x 256 measurements cells covering the whole field of view, which presents radiologists with a larger viewing angle while covering a wider anatomical area without the need of repositioning the C-arm for the interventional process,” observed Frost & Sullivan research analyst Darshana De. Frost & Sullivan is an international growth consultancy company (Palo Alto, CA, USA). "The technology intends to ensure optimally exposed images regardless of size, shape, and position of the object. This helps to capture moving images while simultaneously reducing motion artifacts, thereby providing clinicians and radiologists with sharper, high-resolution images for more accurate diagnosis and treatment at a minimum dose.”

With the help of Ziehm Imaging's pioneering, variable isocentricity technology, two-dimensional (2D) image sequences can be used to obtain 3D visualization. Additionally, with Ziehm Imaging's implementation of intelligent virtual mechanics (IVM) technology, the isocenter can be chosen freely. Consequently, it facilitates the positioning of the patient for the following 3D scan. A system with isocentricity can be used to obtain full anatomic viewing, with the additional information yielded by 3D image sequences further simplifying the surgical assessment required during intervention.
