What Is the Hologic Fluoroscan Premier C-Arm Lock (210473)?
Product: Hologic Fluoroscan Premier C-Arm Lock
Part Number: 210473
The Hologic Fluoroscan Premier C-Arm Lock (210473) is the locking mechanism that secures the C-arm in position on the Hologic Fluoroscan Premier mini C-arm. During fluoroscopic procedures, precise and stable C-arm positioning is critical — the lock holds the C-arm firmly in the chosen orbital or horizontal position, preventing drift or movement once the clinician has aligned the imaging field to the anatomy of interest. A properly functioning C-arm lock is a fundamental safety and workflow requirement: a lock that fails to hold allows the C-arm to drift during imaging, which can result in misaligned shots, repeat exposures, and increased patient radiation dose. Replacement is indicated when the lock no longer holds the C-arm securely in position, when it requires excessive force to engage or release, or when it is physically broken or damaged. Compatible with the Hologic Fluoroscan Premier only. Call (800) 643-2998 with your serial number to confirm fit before ordering.

What are the signs that the C-arm lock on my Fluoroscan Premier needs replacement?+
Common signs include the C-arm drifting or shifting position after being locked, the lock failing to engage or disengage smoothly, the lock requiring excessive force to operate, visible physical damage to the locking mechanism, and the C-arm not holding its position reliably during imaging. A C-arm that cannot be locked securely should be taken out of clinical service until the lock is repaired or replaced.
Why is a functioning C-arm lock important for patient safety?+
A secure C-arm lock ensures the imaging field stays precisely positioned over the anatomy of interest throughout the fluoroscopic exposure. If the C-arm drifts after positioning, the clinician may need to repeat the exposure to get the correct anatomical view — each additional exposure increases patient radiation dose. In surgical and procedural settings, a drifting C-arm can also create positioning errors that affect procedural accuracy.
