Our fixed C-arms with procedural intelligence have been designed to simplify endovascular treatment. They allow you to standardize vascular workflows for routine procedures and guide you through complex cases for excellent patient outcomes.
Increasing complexity of EVAR repair
Patient demand for complex EVAR procedures is rapidly increasing. Endovascular stent grafts are already the treatment of choice for up to 80% of aortic aneurysm cases in the U.S. today1. We offer a portfolio of Hybrid OR solutions that help standardize all of your workflows, enabling you to perform complex treatment on a routine basis.

Procedural intelligence changes EVAR treatment
Our fixed C-arms with procedural intelligence help you standardize and speed up your endovascular procedures. Intraoperative software guidance provides assistance throughout your EVAR treatments. With intelligent optimization of image quality and dose along with automated C-arm positioning, even complex cases may be simplified. Implement your own workflow to standardize system settings for EVAR procedures: select custom parameters for every procedure step just one time and then let the system set them automatically in the future.
Discover our EVAR workflow
Our assisted workflow for EVAR allows you to focus entirely on precise stent deployment. Our Hybrid OR imaging systems guide you throughout the entire procedure, from initial data preparation up to 3D assessment of stent positioning.

ARTIS pheno with syngo EVAR Guidance enables us to treat our patients with less radiation exposure, faster and more efficiently. Especially complex procedures like fenestrated stent grafts or TEVAR procedures are extremely simplified.

Review the clinical evidence
EVAR treatment in itself can lower complication rates2 and even reduce the risk of mortality compared to open surgery.3 Using fusion imaging – a core component of procedural intelligence – unlocks additional benefits for you and your patients.
Shorter procedures
Complex procedures without image guidance are lengthy. Fusion imaging provides continuous 3D guidance throughout the whole procedure. This approach supports 30% shorter procedure time.4,6
Less iodine contrast media
Renal insufficiency due to high contrast media use creates limitations for treating patients with comorbidities. Fusion imaging provides continuous guidance without additional contrast media and can reduce contrast media use significantly. In a single center study, CM was reduced around 57% by using Fusion during FEVAR.5,6

The statements by Siemens' customers described herein are based on results that were
achieved in the customer's unique setting. Since there is no “typical” hospital and many variables exist (e.g., hospital size, case mix, level of IT adoption) there can be no guarantee that other customers will achieve the same results.
The statements with footnotes in this document are based on a result of the quoted clinical study that evaluates the procedure. The results are not generated with the actual product version. It is expected, that the actual product version has similar or improved functionality to support the evaluated procedure.
Some/All of the features and products described herein may not be available in the United States or other countries.
