Philips BV Pulsera C-Arm

The PV Pulsera Philips c-arm is a versatile system that is capable of excelling during the most demanding interventional procedures such as Pain Management, General, Orthopedic, Vascular, NeuroVascular and Cardiac surgeries. Incorporating a robust fluoroscopy system with a high resolution CCD camera, the Philips BV Pulsera offers superb image quality and exceptional penetration power. The Philips Pulsera provides outstanding performance while offering low radiation dosage. Highlights include:

• Pulsed acquisition (30 pulses/sec) for better images at a lower dose
• Rotating anode power to penetrate larger patients
• 9″ or 12″ image intensifier
• Excellent maneuverability
