SkanC C-Arm Features
With the SkanC C-Arm ‘Nothing is Opaque’. The SkanC not only enables diagnosis of human anatomical and physiological abnormalities, it has one of the top rated user interfaces in the industry.
The SkanC is a high frequency mobile surgical C-arm.
- Safest C-Arm in its class with virtually very low leakage radiation.
- 40 – 110 kV and 0.2 – 8 mA in continuous Fluoroscopy and up to 10mA in Snapshot mode: Wide parameter range covers most procedures including obese patients.
- 3.5kW (220VAC – 240VAC)/2.2kW (110VAC) RAD mode with high performance switching range from 80 – 250kHz.
- Pulse Fluoroscopy Mode up to 12mA for good quality images at reduced radiation dose.
- Vascular Mode with DSA, Pixel Shifting, Trace, and Road Map tools for effective intervention.
- Image Capture with 1k x 1k resolution for exceptional image quality.
- Advanced denoising algorithm for improved image quality.
- Multi-Mode functionality accommodates vascular, pulsed fluoroscopy, RAD, and fluoroscopy.
- Virtual Collimation allows ROI selection without additional exposure, reducing the dose induced to the patient.
- Storage of over 100,000 images eliminates the need for constant image backup.
- Laser Aimer for accurate positioning of the patient, without irradiating.

Console operated Laser Aimer for accurate beam positioning.
Laser Crosshair on ROI.
Precise positioning without continuous X-ray exposure.
Minimizes patient radiation dose by targeting the area of interest.
Reduces radiation to technicians and doctors.
