Azurion with FlexArm
All-in-one diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. The Hybrid OR with Cone Beam CT provides a one stop workflow eliminating multiple clinical visits for improved patient experience and care. Navigational bronchoscopy, percutaneous biopsy, fiducial placement, and iVATS can be combined into a single-stage, singleprovider procedure allowing for diagnosis and treatment in one setting. This streamlined approach not only avoids the upstaging and worse prognosis associated with delayed treatment, but it is also a cost-effective paradigm for the institution.
Xper CT Dual
High quality intra-operative cone beam CT (XperCTDual) provides clinicians greater confidence and precision during biopsies and tumor marking and is imperative for ablative treatment.
High contrast resolution enables monitoring and confirmation of local treatment by providing visualization of adequate tumor coverage and potential complications.
XperGuide
Lesion heterogeneity and lack of conspicuity limit the quality of specimens as well as the feasibility of biopsies when performed under ultrasound or conventional CT. XperGuide needle navigation technology with CBCT increases precision, and enable the targeting of smaller (<=1 cm) or heterogeneous lesions more accurately with less needle repositioning at lower dose than conventional CT.
The use of CBCT in the hybrid OR provides us with a reliable and accurate method for intraoperative localization of small pulmonary nodules. This is the next step in the evolution of thoracic surgery."
