Arizona Heart: Three advanced technology operating rooms with state-of-the art C-arm solutions / Leading hospital for heart and vascular disease opts for Ziehm Vision RFD for virtually unlimited imaging
Nuremberg (ots) - Arizona Heart, one of the area's leading hospitals
for the diagnosis and treatment of heart and vascular disease, has
opted for Ziehm digital flat-panel C-arms for its three advanced
technology suites. The Ziehm Vision RFD hybrid edition delivers
distortion-free, high-resolution images for interventional
procedures, and represents a cost-efficient alternative solution to
fixed installed systems. Twelve ceiling-mounted monitors from Ziehm
Imaging guarantee for ideal visualization in the OR.
Dr. Grayson H. Wheatley III, MD at Arizona Heart, performs an
increasing number of hybrid procedures. These less-invasive
interventions speed up patient recovery and minimize pain, all while
treating more complex problems. "Without imaging, we would not be
able to successfully treat many critically ill patients. The Ziehm
C-arm is often used for complex cases which can take hours. Its image
quality is comparable with many fixed imaging systems", says Dr.
Wheatley III. "A reliable imaging solution is critical since we do
not want to worry about the C-arm shutting down because of
overheating when treating the patient."
The Ziehm Vision RFD is tailored to hybrid OR use criteria. With up
to 25 images per second, its powerful monoblock generator also
produces high-quality X-rays of moving objects such as beating
hearts. Lead technologist Scott Cox R.T.'s team performs between
120-150 endovascular and hybrid procedures per month. "One of the
best things about the Ziehm C-arms is their ease of use. It is very
easy to switch between live angio, subtracted roadmapping and the
archived images via touchscreen."
Ziehm Imaging is dedicated to provide not only innovative technology,
but also outstanding service, including staff training and continuous
assistance during the installation. Chief Operation Officer Shanna
Woyak says: "Ziehm Imaging's service excellence is unsurpassed. They
are accessible and visible and have played a viable role in our
physician and staff education on the C-arms."
