Product Overview
The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D is a powerful imaging tool that uses flat-panel technology to reduce radiation doses without sacrificing image quality. It’s capable of generating 3D images of even the tiniest structures, and its built-in software reduces artifacts and blurring.
The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D minimizes the need for postoperative CT scans and revision surgeries by providing exceptional intraoperative imaging. It delivers outstanding performance across a wide range of complex and demanding surgical applications.
Intraoperative 3D imaging has become a critical tool in advanced orthopedic, trauma, and spinal surgeries, allowing surgeons to evaluate their work in real-time. The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D is an innovative mobile 3D C-arm designed to enhance surgical precision and improve patient outcomes, all while managing costs effectively.
Compared to traditional fixed C-arms, Ziehm’s 3D systems are much more compact and approximately 60% lighter than mobile CT scanners. This makes the Ziehm Vision RFD 3D highly maneuverable and ideal for use across a wide range of surgical procedures
Important features of the Ziehm Vision RFD 3D include the following:
- Advanced cooling that keeps the machine operational for long periods
- The ability to capture high-quality 2D images to pair with the 3D versions for extra information
- Full control of the 4 motorized axes via the Position Control Center (PCC) and the Remote Vision Center (touchscreen) to improve intraoperative control options
- Ziehm NaviPort interface for image guided 3D navigation and robotic guidance systems of leading providers
- The Ziehm Usability Concept² combines an excellent set of hardware features with seamlessly integrated software functionalities
- A powerful generator that keeps the machine working continuously during long periods
- Extensive visualization options, including color-coding of screws for orthopedic procedures
- Latest flat-panel technology for CT-like image quality
- More distinguishable anatomy in 3D reconstruction with ZIR (Ziehm Iterative Reconstruction) to minimize metal artifacts
- Different volume sizes for the ideal resolution with 320³ voxel or 512³ voxel (CMOS)
- Patented SmartScan technology for complete 3D information
Core Features of the Ziehm Vision RFD 3D
The Ziehm Vision 3D is a truly remarkable machine that packs a lot of imaging power into a mobile format that you can deploy quickly and effectively.
The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D is one of the first mobile 3D C-arm tools on the market that uses a flat-panel detector. This technology results in clear images at a low radiation dose.
Your team can choose from several volume sizes, ensuring a sharp resolution without blurring. The machine can also perform a 180-degree scan for a complete 3D dataset.
A powerful cooling system keeps the Ziehm Vision RFD 3D generator operating for long periods without overheating. If the machine’s core temperature rises, the technology automatically adjusts until the temperature returns to normal.
The machine also includes workflow tools that can increase efficiency. Your team can operate the machine via touchscreens mounted on the arm, allowing them to stay within the surgical field while accessing critical information.
The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D includes wizards that assist in programming the scan and ensuring patients are exposed to an appropriate dose. Ziehm’s proprietary SmartDose technology also helps to reveal anatomical details at a very low patient dose.
Additional tools keep patients safe during guided surgical procedures. For example, Beam Filtration helps to reduce the amount of radiation needed for an appropriate skin entrance dose.
Technology
The technical details of the Ziehm Vision RFD 3D could help you understand why this machine might be the right choice for you. Here’s what you need to know:
This mobile C-arm machine can complete a 180-degree scan for complete 3D imaging in about 48 seconds. It can display the information from those scans in about 8 seconds.
The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D can deliver high-resolution 2D and 3D images. This versatility allows your medical teams to compare data from both types of scans and make precise decisions using images from every angle.
The machine is equipped with flat-panel detectors to provide high-resolution images with fewer issues, such as blurring and artifacts. It’s one of the only machines of its type that offers this type of technology.
The Ziehm Vision RFD 3D contains a rotating anode X-ray tube that is capable of powering long surgical procedures without breaking or burning out. This powerful tube ensures that the images are crisp and clear.
A pulsed monoblock 25kW generator powers the machine. It’s equipped with a cooling system that’s capable of keeping the machine cool during extended periods of operation.
Several monitor options are available to keep your team informed. A wall-mount screen provides high-resolution images the entire team can see, while a smaller monitor can put core information in front of people outside the surgical field.
Touchscreen operation makes setting parameters and running scans easy and intuitive. The tool comes preprogrammed with multiple options, reducing the time your team spends hunting for the right setting.
Proprietary technology ensures that your patients and staff members aren’t exposed to excessive radiation doses during exams and procedures. While the lowest dose is always used, image quality isn’t sacrificed.
Your team members can save, share, and review images quickly and effectively without reprogramming. Set up and start using the machine within minutes.
