Before you think the mini C-Arm is the end-all, be-all, it’s important to note some of the disadvantages: - The image quality of a traditional C-Arm is better, because the mini C-Arm has a small low power X-ray generator and a small field of view. - The mini C-Arm can only be used for extremity surgery, while a conventional C-Arm can be used for both axial and extremity surgery. **Talk To An Expert** Is your practice, healthcare facility or hospital ready to add a mini C-Arm to your arsenal?  If so, you might be surprised to find out that refurbished and previously used mini C-Arms are available and much more affordable.  In addition, you also receive exceptional warranties to protect your investment.  Why not talk to an expert at [Atlantis Worldwide](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com) to see if a [refurbished C-Arm](https://www.atlantisworldwide.com/product_category/c-arms/) is right for your practice?  We’ve been providing refurbished and preowned medical imaging equipment to healthcare providers, physicians, clinics and hospitals for more than 25 years.  [Contact Us Today!](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/contact) #### Some blogs you may have missed: - [Don’t Assume When You Buy A C-Arm Online](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/buy-c-arm-online) - [C-Arms: The Importance of A Turnkey Solution](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/c-arms-turnkey-solution) - [Don't Get Stuck In One Position: C-Arm Table Movements](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/-c-arm-table-movement) - [Ambulatory Surgery Centers - What are the benefits?](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/bid/345098/Ambulatory-Surgery-Centers-What-are-the-benefits) - [5 Service Agreements for Your Used Medical Imaging Equipment](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/bid/350421/5-Service-Agreements-for-Your-Used-Medical-Imaging-Equipment) Meet the author: [Vikki Harmonay](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/vikki-harmonay) [![C-Arm Comparison Free eBook](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/180962/86019049-1e55-4a99-862c-a8aa72786383.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/180962/86019049-1e55-4a99-862c-a8aa72786383) Topics: [C-Arm](https://info.atlantisworldwide.com/blog/topic/c-arm) ### Follow Atlantis Worldwide ### Subscribe to weekly blog! ### Follow us on Linkedin ### [![New Call-to-action](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/180962/3969ea54-f31c-4ddb-b89e-c07dbf135e59.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/180962/3969ea54-f31c-4ddb-b89e-c07dbf135e59)   ### Free eBook on Capital Equipment- Upgrade or Replace- When is it time?
