2.0 SYSTEM OVERVIEW SECTION
2.1 FIELDS OF APPLICATION
The ZIEHM QUANTUM is a Mobile C-Arm X-Ray System with Image Intensifier which is
suitable for all surgical applications, pain management, traumatology, orthopedics, neurology,
urology, gastroenterology, ERCP, simple peripheral vascular and simple interventional
procedures such as pacemaker.
2.2 FEATURES
2.2.1 MOBILITY
With its compact design and combined steering & braking system, the ZIEHM QUANTUM
offers the operator unrestricted mobility in positioning at the operating table, even if space is
scarce.
The easy adjustability and accurate counterbalancing of the ample C-Arm profile and stand
makes it possible to access even the most difficult positions.
2.2.2 ORGAN PROGRAMS
Computer-controlled anatomical programs ensure optimal exposure rate and image quality
control as well as high operating comfort. A “LP”’ program for visualization of larger adipose
patients and a ‘Metal’ program for suppressing image flare resulting from the use of metal
implants and surgical instruments complete the automatic functions.
2.2.3 RADIATION REDUCTION
The superior penetration capabilities of the ZIEHM QUANTUM High-Frequency Generator
enable a significant reduction in the patient skin dose.
Radiation-free digital image rotation is provided by the system’s state of the art image processing.
LPD operation allows larger adipose patient penetration without incorporating boost or high mA
modes of radiation.
2.2.4 IMAGE QUALITY
18" flat-panel LCD Monitors with anti-reflection coating guarantee clear flicker-free images. The
advanced LCD TFT Technology, CCD camera, 16 bit image processing, and 1K x 1K up-scan
image system matrix, provides the operator with higher resolution images.
2.2.5 IMAGE ADJUSTMENT
Comprehensive real-time image processing functions, customizable noise and area filtering,
electronic contrast and brightness adjustment, zooming, radiation-free horizontal and vertical
image reversal, digital image rotation ensure perfect adaptation of the image quality and
orientation on the screen to the surgeon’s needs.
Further image processing functions are available for saved images by means of Post-processing.
