The Orthoscan Tau 1512 is a premium mini C-arm featuring improved articulation, an advanced touchscreen interface, and intelligent dose reduction. A bright 24" monitor with a 12" × 9.5" live image and high-resolution CMOS detector makes it easy to visualize fine anatomical details in extremity procedures. Ergonomic bilateral backlit controls on the C-arm, a three-way brake system, and a lightweight frame simplify navigation down hallways and around tight corners. Advanced pediatric presets and anatomical selections streamline protocol setup, while adaptive dose control helps minimize radiation exposure.
