The InfiMed Orion Fluoroscopic imaging system is a high resolution, digital imaging system designed for digital videography. It is intended to replace conventional film techniques in multipurpose or dedicated applications where general fluoroscopy, interventional fluoroscopy or angiography or cardiac imaging procedures are performed.

The Orion system allows the operator to view and enhance 1000 line fluoroscopy. High resolution digital spot images ( 1024x1024) may be acquired at single or rapid acquisition rates. Images may be viewed and enhanced enabling the operator to bring out diagnostic details difficult or impossible to see using conventional imaging techniques. Images can be stored locally for medium term storage.

The Orion system enables the operator to hardcopy image with a laser printer or send images over a network for longer term storage. The major system components include: a fluoroscopic TV camera, monitors, and an image processor.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
