G-Arm & O-Arm
The G-Arm and O-Arm Imaging Systems at Burjeel Medical City provide advanced 2D and 3D imaging solutions for precise surgical interventions. These systems are particularly valuable in complex surgeries involving the spine, orthopedics, neurosurgery, and other specialty procedures. The G-Arm delivers dynamic 2D imaging, while the O-Arm offers intraoperative 3D imaging with real-time updates, allowing for enhanced visualization during surgery. This combination ensures that surgeons have the most detailed anatomical information to guide their procedures, improving accuracy, safety, and outcomes.
Key Features.
Radiation Dose Control
Both the G-Arm and O-Arm systems are designed with radiation dose management, ensuring that both patients and medical staff are exposed to minimal radiation during procedures, enhancing safety while maintaining high imaging quality.
Minimally Invasive Surgery Support
These systems support minimally invasive surgical techniques, providing precise navigation and visualization of the surgical site, making surgeries less invasive with faster recovery times, reduced scarring, and minimal pain.
360-Degree Imaging with O-Arm
The O-Arm system provides 360-degree scans, offering a complete view of complex structures such as the spine or joints, enhancing surgical precision and enabling more accurate decisions during surgery.
2D/3D Imaging Capability
The G-Arm provides high-quality 2D imaging, while the O-Arm offers 3D imaging during critical phases of surgery, ensuring a comprehensive view of the operative field for improved surgical planning and precision.
Real-Time Intraoperative Imaging
Both G-Arm and O-Arm provide real-time imaging during surgery, allowing surgeons to visualize structures and make immediate adjustments as needed to improve the accuracy of surgical procedures.
Conditions Treated Using G-Arm & O-Arm Imaging Systems.
The G-Arm and O-Arm systems are used in a variety of surgical procedures, particularly in the following areas:
- Spinal conditions (e.g., spinal deformities, herniated discs, spinal tumors)
- Orthopedic surgeries (e.g., bone fractures, joint replacements, complex bone reconstructions)
- Neurosurgical interventions for brain and spinal conditions
- Complex reconstructive surgeries
- Minimally invasive spine surgery
- Trauma surgery involving bones or joints
- Vascular surgeries requiring precise navigation
- Head and neck surgeries (e.g., thyroid surgeries, oral and maxillofacial procedures)
Benefits of G-Arm & O-Arm Imaging Systems.
Patients undergoing surgery with the assistance of G-Arm and O-Arm imaging benefit from the systems' advanced capabilities:
Enhanced Surgical Precision
The ability to visualize both 2D and 3D images in real-time during surgery allows for more accurate tumor removal, bone reconstruction, and spinal corrections, improving surgical outcomes.
Improved Outcomes for Complex Surgeries
The detailed imaging provided by the O-Arm, with its 360-degree view, enhances the ability to perform precise surgical maneuvers, leading to improved outcomes, particularly in spine or orthopedic surgeries.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Both imaging systems support minimally invasive techniques, which means smaller incisions, reduced pain, minimal scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery, all of which contribute to better patient experience.
Reduced Radiation Exposure
The systems’ radiation management features minimize exposure for patients and staff, ensuring that high-quality imaging is achieved without unnecessary radiation, helping to protect both patient and healthcare providers.
Increased Patient Safety
Real-time imaging allows surgeons to make immediate adjustments during surgery, reducing the risk of complications and enhancing patient safety.
