A clear advantage in gastrointestinal procedures

Projection flexibility for gastrointestinal (GI) diagnostics & interventions

  The gastrointestinal (GI) tract can host a wide variety of diseases – in patients of all ages. Effective diagnosis and treatment requires the utmost flexibility from your medical equipment. The MultiDiagnost Eleva multipurpose X-ray system with its gastrointestinal package can visualize anatomy from any angle. Its dynamic video fluoroscopy can show the GI tract function in real time. The system’s 3D imaging provides insight into complex structures like the gall duct in the liver.

 

Perform the full range of GI diagnostics & interventions

  • The projection flexibility offered by the C-arc of the MultiDiagnost Eleva provides  excellent anatomical insight that supports efficient diagnostics and interventions. 
  • High resolution images visualize the smallest anatomical details and support both GI diagnostics and interventions on the same system.
  • Barium swallow and speech therapy examinations can be done with the patient remain sitting in a (wheel)chair.
  • Left suspended table available for ERCP fluoroscopy procedures.
  • For patient’s comfort during defecography procedures a special stool is available.

 

Increase patient comfort during GI procedures

The C-arc moves around the table and patient so that patients can remain stationary during examinations of the gastrointestinal tract. Patients can be imaged in a sitting position in a wheelchair, standing or lying on the tabletop. This increases patient comfort during lengthy GI procedures.

 

Enhanced insight during ERCP procedures

For optimal access to the patient during an ERCP procedure, a left suspended table is available. The C-arc’s projection flexibility makes it possible to view the anatomy from various angles which gives additional clinical information for treatment planning.  In addition the 3D-RX imaging gives unrivaled anatomical insight.
