Imaging study

The fluoroscope is an imaging technique in medicine that allows the radiodiagnosis of bone lesions and pathologies in extremities such as the foot. This system allows to study the bone and joint anatomy as well as to obtain dynamic data of the foot in real time. This system is especially useful for the post-surgical evaluation of patients.

Modern fluoroscopy employs a low-radiation X-ray image intensifier together with an image capture machine that allows real-time image and video display. Importantly, these imaging techniques emit so little radiation that no special isolation is required.

At Clínica San Román we have two modern fluoroscopes(XiScan) and one General Electric (GE) for high definition digital radiographs. This system allows us to have a better vision and precision to perform our percutaneous or minimally invasive foot surgery procedures.
