Siemens Medical Solutions' Artis zeego features a multi-axis C-arm that employs robotic technology to extend imaging capabilities through virtually unrestricted C-arm positioning.

The iCR3600SF computed radiography system from iCRco incorporates True Flat Scan Path, reportedly an ultra precise scan mechanism and protective cassettes to produce over 300,000 high resolution images per plate.

iCRco imaging plates are fixed to a rigid back panel and because nothing ever touches the active area of the phosphor plate the result is an artifact-free image. Unlike most CR products, the iCR3600SF uses no rollers to transport the plate across the scan head. The company says a positive traction drive system ensures perfect artifact-free reproduction.
