Which is For You? OEC or Philips C-Arm?

C-Arms are definitely in demand, with North
American being the largest market for C-Arms,
with a market share of 40.3 and 809.4 million
in market revenue. And the global C-Arm market is
expected to grow to 3,142.8 million by 2030.
This is largely due to the rising geriatric
population and increasing demand for imaging
technologies in the healthcare sector.
Many hospitals, clinics, urgent care facilities
and veterinarian clinics are choosing to buy
C-Arms through the secondary market, because they
can get the performance they want at a much
kinder price point. Two solid C-Arm options for
consideration are the OEC C-Arms and the Philips
Pulsera C-Arms. So what are the differences
between these two product lines? Lets take a
closer look at which of these might be the better
choice for your needs.

Power
When comparing OEC and Philips C-Arms, OEC is the
clear winner when it comes to power.

If you dont need all the anatomy-penetrating
power of an OEC 9900 or 9800, the OEC 8800 could
be right for you. It will cost less and have a
smaller footprint, so its better for tight
spaces and less fluoro-heavy applications.
Parts
When it comes to the availability of parts,
youll find lots of OEC systems parts available
on the secondary market, including for older
models like the OEC 9600. However, parts for
Philips C-Arms arent nearly available as OEC
models. That makes them more costly to replace
than OEC parts.

Third Party Engineering
If you want to keep any C-Arm functioning, it
requires proper service and maintenance. This
means you need a good engineer in close
proximity. If you want to save money (and who
wouldnt), using a third-party engineer makes
sense instead of an OEM. However, youll have a
difficult time finding one who can or will
service Philips systems. Third party engineers
who will service OEM systems are abundantly
available.
