What Is the Orthoscan FD-OR U-Arm “C” Assembly (915-0062)?
Product: Orthoscan FD-OR U-Arm Assembly (15x12)
Part Number: 915-0062
The Orthoscan FD-OR U-Arm “C” Assembly (915-0062) is the C-arm structural assembly on the Orthoscan FD-OR mini C-arm. The U-arm — also referred to as the C-arm or “C” carriage — is the U-shaped mechanical arm that holds the X-ray tube head on one end and the 15x12 flat panel detector on the other, maintaining the fixed geometric relationship between the X-ray source and detector required for accurate fluoroscopic imaging. The arm rotates orbitally to allow the clinician to position the imaging angle around the patient without moving the patient or the workstation column. The FD-OR is specifically designed for use in the operating room, and the U-arm assembly is built to accommodate the longer source-to-detector distance required by the 15x12 flat panel detector. Replacement of the U-arm assembly is a major service procedure typically required when the arm has sustained physical damage, when the orbital rotation mechanism has failed or become excessively worn, or during major refurbishment. Compatible with the Orthoscan FD-OR only. Call (800) 643-2998 with your serial number to confirm fit before ordering.
Compatible Systems
Part 915-0062 is the 15x12 U-arm assembly specific to the Orthoscan FD-OR only. The Orthoscan FD, FD Pulse, HD, UC, and MDI use different C-arm or carriage configurations and are not compatible with this assembly. U-arm replacement is a major service procedure — post-installation imaging geometry verification is required before returning the unit to clinical use.

What is the U-arm “C” assembly and what does it do?+
The U-arm, also called the C-arm or “C” carriage, is the U-shaped structural arm that holds the X-ray tube head on one end and the flat panel detector on the other. It maintains the fixed geometric relationship between the X-ray source and detector that is required for accurate fluoroscopic imaging. The arm rotates orbitally to allow the clinician to change the imaging angle around the patient without repositioning the patient or the workstation column.
What makes the FD-OR U-arm different from other Orthoscan C-arm assemblies?+
The Orthoscan FD-OR is specifically designed for use in the operating room and uses a larger 15x12 flat panel detector. The FD-OR U-arm assembly (915-0062) is built to accommodate the larger detector and the longer source-to-detector distance it requires. It is not interchangeable with the standard FD or other Orthoscan model C-arm assemblies.
