G.E. OEC FlexiView 8800 Fluoroscope (C-Arm)
An arthrogram can be done as a stand-alone test; however, most are done in conjunction with an MRI or CT exam. NSI performs MRI arthrograms at our Melbourne, Merritt Island and Orlando locations. For patients who cannot have MRIs, NSI performs CT arthrograms at our Merritt Island and Orlando locations.

The equipment used to perform an arthrogram includes a fluoroscope (c-arm), a radiographic table and two television-like monitors. The fluoroscope (c-arm) is a florescent x-ray device, which transmits real-time, moving images (live-feed) of a joint to two television-like monitors. The G.E. OEC FlexiView 8800 Fluoroscope (C-Arm) provides the radiologists with a clear view of the joint. The G.E. OEC FlexiView 8800 Fluoroscope (C-Arm) ensures that the radiologist reaches the joint space and that the contrast material is injected into the right area. The radiographic table is adjustable which helps in the transfer of small or disabled patients. It has a weight limit of 180 kg (400 lbs).
