In the fast-paced world of surgery, orthopedics, and pain management, C-Arm machines are indispensable tools. These advanced imaging systems provide real-time X-ray visualization during procedures, guiding everything from fracture repairs to catheter placements.
To ensure your C-Arm machine delivers safe, precise, and uninterrupted imaging, routine inspection and maintenance aren't just best practices—they’re absolutely vital.
At MR Biomed Tech Services, we offer expert C-Arm inspection, calibration, and performance testing throughout Texas, proudly serving facilities in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and Fort Worth. If you’re a healthcare provider aiming for dependable, regulation-ready imaging systems, this guide is tailored for you.
C-Arms are used in critical, often life-saving procedures. Any malfunction, drift in image quality, or radiation leakage can result in:
Inaccurate diagnosis or surgical errors
Increased radiation exposure for patients and staff
Compliance violations and failed audits
Costly repairs or equipment downtime
Regular C-Arm inspections help identify these issues early—before they affect patient outcomes or regulatory status.
At MR Biomed Tech Services, our certified biomedical engineers perform a comprehensive, multi-point inspection that includes:
Verifies compliance with Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) and FDA radiation standards
Confirms leakage and scatter radiation are within safe limits
Tests resolution, contrast, and brightness
Calibrates fluoroscopic and radiographic settings
Inspects movement of the C-arm gantry, image intensifier, and X-ray tube
Checks brake systems, motorized arms, and footswitch controls
Inspects cabling, power supplies, and digital interfaces
Identifies early signs of component failure
Verifies that stored patient images and transmitted data are protected via AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption
Ensures HIPAA-compliant image storage and transfer
Healthcare providers in Texas should follow these inspection intervals:
Annually: For general compliance and preventive maintenance
Semi-annually or quarterly: In high-volume surgical centers or trauma hospitals
Post-repair or relocation: Every time the unit is serviced or moved
Modern C-Arm machines often store or transmit patient images over hospital networks. This makes them vulnerable to data breaches if not properly secured.
We ensure that your C-Arm’s digital components use AES encryption (AES-256) to protect:
Stored radiographs
PACS integration
Wireless transmissions
USB/image transfers
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is the global standard for healthcare data protection and essential for HIPAA compliance. A single unencrypted device can put your entire clinic or hospital at risk.
