Auxo Medical Surgical C-Arms: Top Models, Benefits, and Why to Buy Refurbished

In the modern operating room, visibility is everything. Whether performing orthopedic surgery, pain management procedures, or vascular interventions, having high-quality, real-time imaging is non-negotiable. This is where the C-Arm (Mobile Fluoroscopy System) becomes the surgeon’s most valuable asset.

At Auxo Medical, we specialize in providing top-tier new and refurbished C-Arms to clinics, hospitals, and surgery centers. If you are looking to upgrade your imaging capabilities without breaking your budget, here is everything you need to know about navigating the C-Arm market.

What is a C-Arm and Why is it Essential?

A C-Arm is a mobile imaging device named for its C-shaped arm, which connects the X-ray source and the X-ray detector. This unique shape allows the device to rotate around the patient, providing high-resolution X-ray images in real-time without moving the patient.

Key applications include:

• Orthopedics: Pinning fractures and checking bone alignment.
• Pain Management: Guiding needle placement for injections.
• Vascular Surgery: Visualizing blood flow and blockages.
• Cardiac Studies: Monitoring heart function during catheterization.

Top C-Arm Models Available at Auxo Medical

Not all imaging systems are created equal. Based on industry standards and reliability, we carry the most trusted brands in the medical field, specifically focusing on GE OEC and Genoray.

1. GE OEC 9800 Plus

Considered the “workhorse” of the industry, the GE OEC 9800 remains the gold standard for mobile fluoroscopy. It features a simplified user interface and 1k x 1k imaging resolution. It is renowned for its durability and is an excellent choice for high-volume pain management and orthopedic centers.

2. GE OEC 9900 Elite

The OEC 9900 takes the reliability of the 9800 and adds enhanced processing power. With articularic mechanical design and dynamic range management (DRM), this unit provides superb image quality even in difficult imaging conditions. It is ideal for vascular and neurovascular procedures where detail is critical.

3. Genoray Zen-7000 & Zen-2090

For facilities looking for cutting-edge Flat Panel Detector (FPD) technology, Genoray offers compact and powerful solutions. These units are lighter, easier to maneuver, and offer a larger field of view with less radiation exposure compared to traditional image intensifiers.

New vs. Refurbished: The Smart Financial Move

One of the biggest questions medical administrators face is whether to buy new or refurbished. At Auxo Medical, we believe that refurbished C-Arms offer the best return on investment for most facilities.

Why choose a Refurbished C-Arm from Auxo Medical?

• Cost Savings: A refurbished GE OEC 9800 or 9900 can cost 30% to 50% less than a brand-new unit from the manufacturer.
• Like-New Performance: “Refurbished” does not mean “used.” Our technicians strip these machines down, replace worn components, recalibrate the imaging systems, and repaint the casing. The result is a machine that looks and functions like new.
• Warranty & Support: We stand behind our work. Our refurbished units come with warranties and service plans to ensure your equipment remains compliant and operational.

Service, Repair, and Maintenance

Buying the equipment is only half the battle; maintaining it is the other. C-Arms are complex machines that require regular calibration and preventative maintenance to meet FDA and state health standards.

Auxo Medical provides comprehensive biomedical services. Whether you need an emergency repair, routine preventative maintenance (PM), or a rental unit while yours is being serviced, our certified engineers are ready to assist.
