More About IC100 Mobile 3D X-ray Fluoroscope Medical Device
IC100 is a mobile 3D X-ray fluoroscope designed for use during surgery. The device captures video, still images and three-dimensional images. The C-arm and the workstation are merged into one cart, saving operating room space and making the unit easier to move. A wide C-ring opening suits many surgical scenarios. Smart-Link technology connects the system with surgical robots and shortens the preparation workflow. A CMOS detector supports high image quality at low doses. A separate image console allows remote exposure, reducing radiation exposure for medical staff.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The portable X-ray device captures video,still images,3D imaging while surgery: Smarter:SMART-LINK opens up interactions with surgical robot,73% workflow deduction compared to existing flow. More agile:1st ever highly integrated,all-in-one 3D C-Arm saves OR space,easier to move. More convenient:Oversized opening fit more surgical scenarios. Clearer:Next-gen CMOS detector allows high image quality at low doses. Safer:Stand-alone image console allows remote exposure,greatly reduce radiation damage
- Inspiration
- C-Arm is a must have for the popular Orthopedic robots, while existing-C-Arm doesn’t fit to robots. Workflow: Except 13-step surgical process,robot+existing C-Arm ask an extra 15-step and a technician to finish preoperative preparation, and additional 10-20min surgical time,reduced surgical efficiency and added patients’ anesthesia risk. Large size of existing dual-trolley C-Arm affect surgeons’ work space, surgical result,even surgical safety. Operation room:limited space,densely equipped and staffed.
- Research
- Hundreds of stakeholders were surveyed.Applied in-depth function analysis of competitors,patent layout analysis and protection. C-Arm is a mature market,3D C-Arm sales are very limited.Demand of robotic surgery brought a huge market to 3D C-Arm.Existing C-Arm designed for manual surgery,has huge drawbacks to work with robot: Complex procedures,inefficient,patient anesthesia risk,collision risk,high radiation,big size,low intelligence,poor images+surgical adaptability+visual field,low 3D accuracy
