Refurbishing Process:
All OEC-9800’s go through a multistep refurbishing process. Each unit is restored to a like-new status. Pain Management, Orthopedics and Rehabilitation Services are just a few of the applications utilizing the refurbished OEC-9800 c-arm. The rotating x-ray tube allows for greater penetration and resolution for the lumbar area when doing needle localizations or other work involving the thicker anatomical areas of patients. For barium swallows a VCR or Digital Video Recorder can be utilized for better record keeping and post study analysis. The 1K X 1K CCD Technology used in the OEC-9800 image system allows for crisp, clear imaging. Whatever the purpose, a refurbished OEC-9800 will deliver the results you can depend on.
