What is a C-arm X-ray machine and what are the differences between different models of C-arm X-ray machines?

The C-arm X-ray machine is a common medical device. It helps doctors diagnose and treat patients with the help of X-rays. As a medical test equipment, it plays an irreplaceable role in current clinical applications. The model C-arm X-ray machine has a wide range of applications in actual clinical applications, suitable for many diseases. EEG machine

C-arm X-ray machines can be divided into small C-arm X-ray machines (small C), medium C-arm X-ray machines (medium C) and large C-arm X-ray machines (large C, DSA), let's give you a specific introduction to the difference between these three C-arm X-ray machines.

Small C-arm X-ray machines are usually C-arms designed for orthopedics. The power of the tube is small. The function is simple and the price is cheap. The voltage is 100kV-120kv, and the current is only about 20mA-100mA. It can be used in orthopedic surgery for bone adjustment, reduction, and nailing; during surgery, foreign body removal, cardiac catheterization, pacemaker implantation, part of interventional therapy, part of angiography, and local photography.

The medium C-arm X-ray machine is also known as the peripheral interventional C-arm. It is used for imaging and photography in various operations. Compared with the small C, it is not only larger in size. First of all, the tube power of the medium C-arm X-ray machine has been significantly improved. Secondly, the system and controllability of the design of the medium C products have been greatly improved, and many DSA related functions have been added. The machine has most of the functions of a large C and can carry out complex interventional operations. The medium C voltage is almost 120-150kV and the current is 500mA-800mA.

The large C-arm X-ray machine is also called DSA vascular machine. Because of the large heat capacity of the tube, it has the functions of rotating imaging or three-dimensional software. It is usually used for more complicated operations such as the heart and peripheral blood vessels in the catheter lab. Compared with small C and medium C, large C is fixed, some are fixed to the ceiling and some are fixed to the ground. The voltage of large C is generally 120-150kV, and the current is about 1000mA.

Generally speaking, big C, medium C and small C have different user targets and clinical application scope. In terms of function, the big C is more powerful, and of course the price will be higher. The small C is popular with clinicians because of its flexible and convenient characteristics in clinical use. Hospitals need to purchase C-arm X-ray machines according to actual needs.

The above is the information compiled by EEG machine manufacturers, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
