Reduction of radiation exposure to the operator with R-PCI2
The catheterization lab is a hazardous workplace. Wearing heavy lead takes a physical toll: One in two interventionalists suffers at least one orthopedic injury.1 Moreover, various cancers are linked to radiation exposure.3,4 As interventions grow in length and complexity,18 these risks are likely to increase.
CorPath GRX virtually eliminates radiation exposure for primary operators,6 can potentially reduce strain and fatigue, and lessen the risk that careers will be cut short.
