M.U.S.Table
Radiolucent operating table for orthopedic trauma surgery.
Description
The M.U.S.Table project aims to develop an electromechanical and modular ‘operating table system’ intended for traumatic and orthopedic surgical applications. The operating table has been designed to ensure wide windows of radiolucency, allowing the use of advanced diagnostic techniques, leveraging the radiolucent properties, workability, and mechanical strength of innovative composite materials. Furthermore, the modularity and compatibility of the designed table allow for adaptability of the surgical plane to different surgical specialties, enabling the use of pre-existing columns in the structure as well as accommodating equipment provided by implantable device manufacturers in positions that do not interfere with the surgical procedure and with the requirements for radiolucency.
Why is it important?
The operating table ‘M.U.S. Table’ improves surgical times, bringing benefits for the patient and healthcare personnel who will be subjected to less intra-operative radiation, and on the other hand repeatability and reproducibility of surgical operations thanks to very precise positioning of the patient. The M.U.S.Table operating table represents a flexible and complete solution for different types of surgeries in the orthopedic and traumatology fields.
