  • Title: Improved Intraoperative Fluoroscopy for Pelvic and Acetabular Surgery.
    Author: Routt MLC, Gary JL, Kellam JF, Burgess AR.
    Journal: J Orthop Trauma; 2019 Feb; 33 Suppl 2():S37-S42. PubMed ID: 30688858.
    Abstract:
    Over the past 3 decades, the evolution of pelvic and acetabular surgery has been supported by the advances in intraoperative pelvic fluoroscopic imaging technology. The new Ziehm RFD 3D C-arm unit provides routine fluoroscopic pelvic imaging but also offers rapid and high-quality real-time axial, sagittal, and coronal intraoperative imaging. This technology allows the surgeon to accurately assess fracture reduction, loose body removal, and implant locations while the patient is still under anesthesia. In this way, any necessary corrections can be performed before the patient leaves the operating room. Essentially, this technology should eliminate the need for revision surgeries. In this report, we present our initial experience using this new device.
