Philips Pulsera C-Arms](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/bid/343668/ge-oec-c-arms-vs-philips-pulsera-c-arms) Posted by [Vikki Harmonay](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/author/vikki-harmonay) on Thu, Apr 24, 2014 @ 15:04 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) The first question everyone wants to know is what is the price difference between GE OEC C-Arms and [Philips Pulsera C-Arms](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/atlantis_products/pulsera/). GE OEC is more expensive – this is a definitive fact of the world we live in, like the earth being round.  ![OEC C-Arm Price vs Pulsera](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/hs-fs/file-696586585-jpg/images/chartprice2.jpg?width=500&height=226&name=chartprice2.jpg) Both Philips and [GE OEC](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/ge/) are great [C-Arms](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/).  However our customers have overwhelmingly preferred the GE OEC brand over any other manufacturer for the last twenty years.  Over the years OEC has maintained approximately 70% market share in the C-Arm marketplace – this fact illustrates the popularity of OEC C-Arms over all of their competitors and influences all aspects of the buying of C-Arms. #### Maintenance and Repair ![OEC C-Arm vs Pulsera C-Arm](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/hs-fs/file-696894135-jpg/images/pul_vs_9800_blog.jpg)Because of the huge market share of GE OEC products, it is much easier and less expensive to service and repair OEC C-Arms.   There is an enormous supply of parts and many more qualified third party ISO (Independent Service Organizations) available to service OEC C-Arms.   Philips C-Arms in particular may require proprietary software only available from Philips to service and repair certain aspects of the C-Arm. #### Functionality Basically the OEC and the Philips C-Arms both function well and provide quality images and applications for your specific needs.   Most customers are equally happy with either OEC or Philips C-Arms. #### The Power of your C-Arm ![OEC Philip C-Arm Chart](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/hs-fs/file-696054737-jpg/images/ge-philip_chart.jpg?width=600&height=288&name=ge-philip_chart.jpg)  Depending on the procedures you will be applying you might need a more powerful C-Arm. #### Features Versus Costs Essentially the main issue in selecting a GE OEC or Philips C-Arm is a price versus functionality and age decision.   Because of the Philips Pulsera’s significantly lower prices, you can purchase a much newer C-Arm with newer features for the same or less money than the equivalently priced OEC C-Arm.  As you can see from our price chart: ![OEC C-Arm vs Philips Pulsera](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/hs-fs/file-691983633-jpg/images/chart1jpg.jpg?width=600&height=132&name=chart1jpg.jpg) Although most of our clients prefer OEC, [Atlantis Worldwide](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com) does support and sell many different C-Arms from [Siemens](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/siemens/), [Philips](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/philips/), [GE](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/ge/), [Genoray](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/genoray/), [Comed](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/comed/) and [Ziehm](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/ziehm/) and all are excellent C-Arms and depending on what your procedures and budget are there is a [C-Arm](http://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/) for you.  We are C-Arm experts and can help you choose a great C-Arm for your facility.  If you have a C-Arm now that you love we would like to hear about it too.  Maybe our next blog can be about your experiences and what works well for you. **Please contact Alex Silbergleit if you would like more information on C-Arms at 212-366-9100 or email alex@atlantisworldwide.com ** #### Some Blogs you may have missed: - [The A, B, C’s of Purchasing C Arms](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/bid/215681/The-A-B-C-s-of-Purchasing-C-Arms) - [C-Arm Image Intensifier - 9" or 12" Size?](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/bid/268330/C-Arm-Image-Intensifier-9-or-12-Size) - [C-Arm: Safety Tips](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/bid/302372/C-Arm-Safety-Tips) - [Everything You Need to Know About C-Arms.
