During the past decade, Digital Cath Lab Imaging has improved, offering better image quality and lower radiation exposure.
Ideal For Peripheral Studies
Looking for the right Cath Lab for run offs, ablation techniques and tumor/vein embolization? You’ll need a larger FoV since these cases cover wider anatomical areas. The experts at Atlantis have three recommendations: The Philips Allura Xper FD20, the GE Innova 4100 and the Siemens Axiom Artis dFA/dTA.
The Perfect Choices For Cardiac Procedures
Cardiac procedures require a more concentrated area of focus for delicate work like directing catheters into the heart. A 20-27 cm FoV would be a perfect option The experts at Atlantis Worldwide recommend the Siemens Axiom Artis dFC/ dTC, Philips FD10 and GE Innova 2100.
Your Best Options For a “Swing Lab”
A Digital Cath Lab that has a software and hardware configuration makes it flexible enough to accommodate a variety of studies in both cardiac studies, vascular and neurological applications is known as a “swing lab.” If your lab requires this level of flexibility, there are several choices to fit your needs: The GE Innova 3100, the Philips FD20 and the Siemens Axion Artis dFA/ dTA. Some of these also appear on the peripheral systems list because they have a 30 x 40cm detector that can be rotated to better match the FoV of the intended procedure.
