What is a C-Arm Image Intensifier machine?
A C-Arm Image Intensifier machine is a device used in medical imaging involving x-rays, mainly used for orthopedic and neurological surgery. The machine has been reported to scatter less radiation thereby reducing radiation dose to patients and theatre staff, by magnifying the intensity produced in the output image, enabling the viewer to easily see the structure of the object very clearly.
