Great ideas for your OR


Higher Image Quality at Lower Radiation Doses

The Cios Flow Mobile C-arm from Siemens Healthineers is designed to make intraoperative imaging straightforward and efficient by automatically adjusting brightness and contrast, detecting motion and optimizing metal visualization. Its lightweight design makes the unit easy to move and position in the OR, and proprietary imaging technology provides high-quality images at low radiation doses. The platform’s intuitive tablet-like controls let providers collimate, flip and rotate images, and optimize imaging parameters to specific anatomical regions. Integrated state-of-the-art cybersecurity safeguards protect imaging data from hackers.

Affordable Robotic Surgery

Distal Motion’s Dexter Surgical Robot is versatile, easy to set up and has a low footprint. Its open console design lets surgeons operate in ergonomic positions of their choice — sitting or standing — and easily switch between laparoscopic and robotic approaches. The platform comes with its own set of single-use 8mm instruments, but is compatible with all laparoscopic imaging technologies and tools. Distal Motion says its ultimate goal is to provide surgeons with the benefits of robotic surgery in a streamlined and affordable platform that integrates with the regular workflow of laparoscopic surgery.

Minimally Invasive Bunion Repair

The instruments and implants included in the dynaBunion Lapidus platform from CrossRoads Extremity Systems provide surgeons with the tools they need to correct bunions in four dimensions through a 3.5cm incision. Surgeons have the freedom of movement to optimize bone alignment and create a more accurate correction while preserving good bone, a factor that improves healing and maintains the length of the corrected toe. The system’s Anti-Drift Bolt provides resistance that reduces the risk of bunion recurrence and prevents the need for a second corrective surgery.
