OEC 3D provides both 2D and 3D imaging and is open to integration with intraoperative technologies such as navigation and robotics, according to a March 22 news release.

The system recently completed clinical evaluations in vivo and in simulated laboratory procedures.

“Built on the successful OEC Elite C-arm platform, the familiar performance and functionality of the OEC 3D C-arm will make 3D imaging routine for complex spine and joint replacement procedures,” said Gustavo Perez Fernandez, president and CEO of GE Healthcare Image Guided Therapies.
