November 4, 2014, Shirley, NY – Biodex will be showcasing it’s latest line of Medical Imaging Tables and Clear-Lead™ Shielding at the upcoming RSNA Annual Meeting
Biodex C-Arm Tables are designed for image-guided procedures where stability, access and precise, quiet, vibration-free positioning are essential, including: Surgical, Pain Management, Urology, Brachytherapy, and 3D Imaging. Functional design provides complete access while minimizing radiation exposure to clinicians.
With extra-large radiolucent area, free-float X-Y tabletop, motorized control of height, lateral roll, Trendelenburg motions and the catheter tray extension, the Surgical C-Arm Table - 840 is ideal for cardiovascular procedures. It offers quick and safe tabletop positioning - ensured by the portable hand-held and foot operated controllers which can be positioned from any point around the table.
Biodex 3D Imaging C-Arm Table - 820 is designed for use with 3D C-Arms for seed implantation, urology, thoracic/vascular and other general C-Arm applications. The narrow, low-attenuation carbon-fiber tabletop is cantilevered to accommodate portable 3D C-Arms. In addition to their line of C-Arm Tables, Biodex will feature the SoundPro™ Combination Table, designed to accommodate both ultrasound and echocardiography procedures. Recent ergonomic enhancements include a cardiac drop-down cushion which releases from either side of the table, providing open access to the patient’s thorax area for an unencumbered apical approach and flush-mounted side rails, enabling closer access to the patient, without sonographer contortion. The side rails stow beneath the table when not in use, eliminating obstruction.
The NEW Clear-Lead™ Personal Mobile Barrier and Clear-Lead Mobile X-Ray Barrier will be on display. Both provide .5 mm LE radiation protection. The Personal Mobile Barrier has a unique hourglass design allowing “hands-on” patient access. This versatile, lightweight barrier offers height adjustability to protect the user, whether seated or standing, essential for urologists, anesthesiologists, pain-care physicians, x-ray technologists and more. The window is anatomically positioned with cutouts for the user’s arms, allowing continuous contact with the patient while maximizing protection.
The Mobile X-Ray Barriers provide ionizing radiation protection wherever it’s needed. With a sleek, easy to clean design, they are durable, shatter resistant and maneuver effortlessly.
