C-Arm Imaging Table: Radiolucent Surgical Table for C-Arm Compatibility
A C-arm imaging table is a surgical table that is fabricated with a radiolucent top through which the X-rays pass properly during the surgical C arm fluoroscopy procedures. It is intended for orthopedic, cardiac, and general surgical procedures in diagnostic clinics, surgical centres, and hospitals in Pakistan that require uninterrupted and clear imaging.
Key Features & Benefits
- Full radiolucent tabletop: The tabletop is either carbon fiber or radiolucent composite material to allow the C-arm unit to obtain an image without any metal artefacts spoiling the view, allowing surgeons to get an accurate image from head to toe without having to reposition the patient. The C-arm imaging table supports clear imaging throughout the procedure.Ā
- 360 degree C-arm access: The table frame has few points of restriction that allow the C arm to move 360 degrees around the patient. This is important during long procedures when several images are required at various angles without having to move the table between the images.Ā
- Adjustable height and tilt: Hydraulic or electric height adjustment and Trendelenburg/reverse Trendelenburg positioning ensure comfortable working for the surgical staff and the right angle for the surgical procedure and imaging equipment. A C-arm imaging table with these positioning features helps support efficient surgical workflows.Ā
- High load capacity: Most tables that are compatible with a C-arm are 180kg to 250kg, which in most cases means they will be able to accommodate the majority of patients and will not compromise the stability of the table during movement and imaging.Ā
- Stable base with lockable wheels: Vibration free table with low centre of gravity bases which can lock the table away to prevent it from rocking when fully extended for imaging and sharpness of images.Ā
- Easy clean surface: Medical upholstery is stain resistant and can be routinely disinfected between procedures, which is crucial for infection control in busy operation theatres with a C-arm imaging table.Ā
Who Should Buy This / Use Cases
This table is designed for use in hospitals for orthopedic trauma, cardiac catheterization, general surgery departments, and intraoperative imaging. Electric drive tables with stable control circuits are particularly important in Pakistan, where the power is not stable in many cities; voltage fluctuations can have an impact on positioning motors.Ā
Clinics using backup generators or UPS should check to see if the power draw in the table is compatible with their generator/UPS. Diagnostic centres that use minimally invasive procedures, pain management injections or vascular access under fluoroscopy also require a dedicated C-arm imaging table, not just an OT table that will need to be adapted to fit the C-arm.Ā

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a fluoroscopy table?
A fluoroscopy table is a surgical or examination table that is used with a C-arm for the real time imaging of the patient’s body during procedures, as it is an X-ray table with a radiolucent top.
What is a C-arm in radiology?
A C-arm is a C-shaped X-ray imaging device that is mobile and used in an operating room and also in a diagnostic environment to capture X-ray images while a surgical or interventional procedure is being performed.
What are the main components of a C-arm machine?
A C-arm machine is made up of the following components; an X-ray generator, an X-ray tube, an image intensifier or flat panel detector, a C-shaped arm that links the tube and detector, a monitor display, and a mobile base or a fixed mount.
Which ray is used in a C-arm machine?
A C-arm machine creates live images of internal structures in the body during a procedure, using x-rays.
How much radiation is in the C-arm?
The amount of radiation emitted by a CARM depends on the type of procedure, the type of imaging, and the imaging settings and is typically a few millirems per minute during standard fluoroscopy, or higher in continuous or high detail modes. As with all good practice, operators should be governed by ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principles and take appropriate precautions to minimise exposure by providing protective shielding.
