interview
Andrea Brameri CEO Eurocolumbus
Being the first has been our vocation for more than 50 years.
Since 1972 we have been developing safe and effective technologies to improve people’s health and well-being. Ours is a Made in Italy story.
2025: 3D ready
Three-dimensional acquisition for detailed and accurate images in real time, integrates three-dimensional images with two-dimensional ones for more accurate diagnosis.

2019: Fusion
FUSION reduces the RX dose, the amount of contrast agent administered and the duration time of the surgical procedure, significantly reducing the risks to the patient.

2017: EBP 25 kW generator
EPB (Eurocolumbus Power Boost) is a power reserve that stabilizes voltage and increases inverter output to avoid fluctuation during long and demanding radiological emissions.

2012: Linux SO
The system management software, developed by the R&D department of Eurocolumbus under LINUX, can process radiological images with a maximum resolution of 3k x 3k in real time.

2011: Internal R&D
Eurocolumbus is still the only Italian C-arm manufacturer that can boast a true internal R&D center.

2010: EPD anti-collision systems
Safety first! The new volumetric EPD (Eurocolumbus Proximity Detection) systems can have different and independent set ups for the FPD side and the RX side.

2007: Wad System
WAD (Water Aided Dissipation) is an RX tube cooling system. Due to the combination of dielectric oil management within the complex, coolant and advanced heat exchanger, the system avoids the presence of fans.

2006: Variable DFF
Variable DFF (Distance Focus Film) provides an important dose reduction by allowing the flat panel to be positioned closer to the patient during irradiation without having to lower the entire C-arm.

2005: The first panel
Flat panel detectors (FPDs) are electronic devices used to capture X-ray images. FPDs offer many advantages over their predecessors, such as better image quality, faster image capture, and higher dose efficiency.
