OrthoScan, Inc., a privately held medical device company based in 
      Scottsdale, Arizona, launched a new version of its Mini C-Arm product 
      with flat detector this week at the Annual Academy of Orthopaedic 
      Surgeons meeting in New Orleans.
    
“We continue to set new standards in Mini C Arm imaging by offering the 
      first Mini C-Arm equipped with a flat detector”
    
      The new Mini C-Arm with flat detector joins the HD Mini C-Arm in the 
      expanded product line offered by OrthoScan. The addition of the flat 
      detector allows greater image quality and lower dose with an enhanced 
      form factor. Flat detector technology, while available for several 
      years, has not been previously integrated with a Mini C-Arm.
    
    
      “We continue to set new standards in Mini C Arm imaging by offering the 
      first Mini C-Arm equipped with a flat detector,” said OrthoScan’s Chief 
      Executive Officer Rob Morocco. “We are pleased to offer our customers 
      the technological benefits inherent in flat detector design such as 
      improved image quality and lower dose.”
    
    
      The product launch follows on the heels of news from OrthoScan of a new 
      round of financing. Participants in the investment were California 
      Technology Ventures, River Cities Capital Funds and Aphelion Capital. 
      Proceeds from the financing will be used to support ongoing development 
      efforts.
    
    
      “We are pleased to support OrthoScan's continued product development 
      efforts and strengthening of its leadership position in the Mini C-Arm 
      market,” said Carter McNabb of River Cities Capital Funds.
