Ziehm Vision RFD: Mobile Flat-Panel Surgical C-Arm
Authorized Ziehm Imaging C-arm equipment supplier. The Ziehm Vision RFD is a mobile flat-panel C-arm built to outperform conventional surgical imaging systems. It provides the comprehensive information once available only from fixed room systems, yet it stays fully mobile so your diagnostic and surgical teams get clear C-arm x ray imaging without wheeling patients into a radiology room. It is the preferred model for highly demanding applications that require more information in one image, equipped with a powerful generator for optimum penetration.
Core imaging technology: a 30cm x 30cm flat-panel detector that produces distortion-free images and increases the visible field almost 2.5 times compared with conventional versions, paired with high contrast imaging that improves visualization of soft tissues and small blood vessels. A 25 kW pulsed monoblock generator with a rotating anode and Advanced Active Cooling supports long procedures even in warm rooms, while SmartVascular lets the team switch between fluoroscopy, DSA, MSA, and RSA with a single click. The SmartDose suite keeps radiation low, making this surgical c arm a strong fit for vascular surgery, interventional radiology, coronary imaging, and orthopedics, trauma, and spine work.

Flat-Panel Imaging, SmartVascular & SmartDose
Three core strengths separate the Ziehm Vision RFD from a conventional mobile C-arm: a high contrast flat-panel detector, the SmartVascular workflow, and the SmartDose suite. Each was engineered to deliver more information in one image while keeping the system mobile and the radiation dose low. Full technical detail is in the expandable sections below.
30cm x 30cm Flat-Panel Detector: A large 11.8 inch by 11.8 inch flat-panel detector produces images without distortion or blurring and increases the visible field almost 2.5 times compared with conventional image intensifier versions
High Contrast Imaging: Optimal soft tissue and bone contrast with high spatial resolution and low noise levels, improving visualization of small blood vessels and fine anatomy
Metal Artifact Handling: Sophisticated processing removes artifacts, blurring, and shadows caused by metal so the team gets the information it needs
Crystal-Clear Frame Rate: Up to 25 frames per second keeps imaging sharp even on fast-moving objects
Powerful Penetration: A powerful generator delivers optimum penetration for dense anatomy and demanding cardiovascular and musculoskeletal cases
SmartVascular Workflow: Easily switch between fluoroscopy, DSA, MSA, and RSA roadmapping with just one click for vascular, endovascular, and interventional cardiology procedures
SmartDose Suite: Intelligent pulse regulation, anatomical programs, and low dose mode automatically optimize dose and image quality for the area being scanned
Advanced Active Cooling: An advanced active cooling system enables the system to operate reliably for extended procedures, even when the imaging space is warm
Versatile Viewing Options: Dual 18.1 inch high contrast monitors and an optional articulating monitor arm offer maximum flexibility in the OR
Intuitive Operation: A touchscreen control panel with an icon-based menu and positioning guidance helps the team complete exams more quickly
How the Ziehm Vision RFD compares against a conventional mobile C-arm:
The Ziehm Vision RFD brings the comprehensive image quality once limited to fixed room systems into a mobile c arm machine that moves to the patient. High contrast flat-panel imaging clearly visualizes soft tissue, bone, and small vessels, while the powerful 25 kW generator handles dense anatomy. Combined with SmartVascular one-click modes and the SmartDose suite, this c arm fluoroscopy machine supports faster, lower dose procedures across vascular, cardiac, and orthopedic surgery.

Imaging Workflow, Dose Control & OR Integration
A complete mobile imaging platform engineered to keep the surgical workflow fast and repeatable. SmartVascular one-click modes, the SmartDose suite, and an intuitive icon-based interface let the team capture the images they need quickly and at low dose. Expanded details are in the expandable sections below.
The SmartVascular workflow lets the team switch between fluoroscopy, pulsed fluoroscopy, DSA, MSA, and RSA roadmapping with just one click. The system automatically adjusts scan parameters in real time based on the patient position and changes the dose level and noise filters for the area being scanned, so the right imaging mode is always a single touch away.
The SmartDose suite keeps radiation low through beam filtration, Object Detected Dose Control, a low dose mode, intelligent reduction of pulse frequency, and a laser positioning device. High-speed ADR, the SDXP algorithm, a removable grid, virtual collimators, and exposure-free magnification further reduce dose, while automatic adjustment for large and pediatric patients tailors exposure to each case.
The Ziehm Vision RFD is fully mobile with a small footprint that fits limited spaces. Motorized C-arm movements with positioning guidance and an icon-based menu help the team set up quickly and complete exams faster, so clear imaging is available wherever the patient is treated without moving them into a radiology room.
Two 18.1 inch high contrast monitors provide optimal viewing from any angle, and an optional articulating monitor arm adds flexibility in the OR. A network port integrates the system into your existing network so patient information and images can be transferred, printed, and saved, which saves staff time.
