GE OEC 6800 MiniView
The GE OEC 6800 MiniView is a mini C-arm engineered for sports medicine, orthopedics, and veterinary applications.
The GE OEC 6800 MiniView is a mini C-arm engineered for sports medicine, orthopedics, and veterinary applications. It was the first mini C-arm to introduce 1k² imaging and a full touchscreen interface, bringing many capabilities of full-sized C-arms into a compact, cost-effective platform. Its highly articulated arm system provides excellent flexibility for positioning around extremities, while intuitive touchscreen controls streamline patient entry, image review, and parameter adjustment. With robust image storage, multiple hard-copy and archive options, and DICOM connectivity (where installed), the 6800 MiniView integrates smoothly into modern digital workflows.
Key Features
- 1k² imaging with touchscreen interface
- Articulating and rotating arm for maximum positioning flexibility
- Over 200° C-arm rotation and 115° orbital travel
- Laser aimer for precise anatomy centering
- On-board image storage (CP and HP platforms)
- Supports multiple hard-copy and archival devices (printer, Jaz, floppy, DICOM)
