Ziehm Imaging as a technology leader

Our continual innovation and the use of industry leading technologies demonstrates the leadership of our C-arms. Among the many, many components and parts that come together in this system, here are the top 5 technologies that make our C-arms unique.

Flat-panel detector

Ziehm Imaging's flat-panel detectors deliver the best image quality while minimizing the dose. They identify more anatomical structures than conventional C-arms, increasing surgical safety and efficiency.

Advanced Active Cooling

The unique liquid cooling system significantly boosts performance. Advanced Active Cooling (AAC) maintains an operating temperature at all times, preventing the generator from overheating.

SmartDose¹

Our comprehensive dose concept helps to display even the smallest details of challenging anatomical areas and reduces dose with intelligent pulse regulation.

Power generator

With up to 25 kW of power and short, sharp pulses that help produce crystal clear X-ray images, our unique monoblock generators offer the highest image quality even in demanding regions and applications.

3D imaging

Our 3D C-arms provide game changing features such as ZIR and SmartScan, which revolutionize intraoperative 3D imaging. ZIR enables CT-like reconstructions with a mobile C-arm and SmartScan offers 180° image information of any anatomical structure.

¹ In clinical practice, the use of SmartDose may reduce patient dose depending on the clinical task, patient size, anatomical location, and clinical practice. A consultation with a radiologist and a physicist should be made to determine the appropriate dose to obtain diagnostic image quality for the particular clinical task.
