Abstract

In a suite with fully interactive computed tomography (CT) and C-arm fluoroscopy units, emergency and elective interventional procedures were performed successfully in 41 patients (overall time range, 40-180 minutes [mean, 80 minutes]). The table can be manually pivoted from the fixed CT position to the free-floating angiography position, in an overall working space of about 40 m(2), with room for anesthesiology and monitoring equipment and personnel.
