Beyond the OR: The Expanding Use of Mobile C-Arms in Clinical Settings
While mobile C-arms are most commonly associated with operating rooms, their use is rapidly expanding into a variety of other clinical settings, creating new and significant growth opportunities for the market. The portability and versatility of C-arms make them an ideal tool for emergency departments, where they are used to quickly diagnose fractures and dislocations. In intensive care units (ICUs), they are used to guide the placement of central venous catheters and feeding tubes. Furthermore, C-arms are increasingly being used in ambulatory surgical centers and pain management clinics for a variety of outpatient procedures. This expansion beyond the traditional operating room is driven by the need for on-demand imaging in a variety of settings and a greater emphasis on providing high-quality care outside of a hospital environment. The market is also seeing new applications in veterinary medicine, where C-arms are used for orthopedic and dental procedures on animals. The ability of mobile C-arms to be easily moved and used in different settings is a key driver of their expanding role and a major factor in the market's growth. For a deeper look at these applications and their market impact, a full report is available on the Fluoroscopy and Mobile C-Arms Market.
