ARTIS is a family of dedicated angiography systems developed for single and biplane diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures including, but not limited to, pediatric and obese patients.
Procedures that can be performed with the ARTIS family include cardiac angiography, neuro-angiography, general angiography, rotational angiography, multipurpose angiography and whole body radiographic/fluoroscopic procedures as well as procedures next to the table for i.e. patient extremities. This does not include projection radiography.
Additional procedures that can be performed include angiography in the operating room, image guided surgery by X-ray, by image fusion, and by navigation systems. The examination table as an integrated part of the system can be used for X-ray imaging, surgery and interventions.
ARTIS can also support the acquisition of position triggered imaging for spatial data synthesis.
The ARTIS family include also the software option DynaCT with following indications for use:
DynaCT is an X-ray imaging software option, which allows the reconstruction of two-dimensional images acquired with a standard angiographic C-arm device into a three-dimensional image format.
DynaCT is intended for imaging both hard soft tissues as well as other internal body structures for diagnosis, surgical planning, interventional procedures and treatment follow-up.
The new ARTIS icono (VE2) system is a medical device that allows visualization of vessels within the human body. It is of the utmost importance to find the right projections so physician can navigate catheters and other devices safely. The ARTIS icono (VE2) system consist of a patient table and a multi-axis motorized c-arm that can be positioned around the patient and angulated in a double-oblique fashion iso-centering the region of interest between the x-ray tube and the flat panel detector. The x-ray generator is placed separately. The displays for visualizing the x-ray images are mounted at the ceiling with a movable display suspension system. System operation is executed via control modules table side so that the physician can move and position the table and c-arm adequately for best imaging while manipulate the catheters or other devices during x-ray. X-ray release is table side via a footswitch.
The ARTIS icono (VE2), modular angiography systems are designed as sets of components that may be combined into two different configurations (Biplane or Floor) to provide specialized angiography systems. In general they are equipped with C-arm, stand, flat panel detector, x-ray tube, collimator, high voltage generator, patient table, and image post processing.
The ARTIS icono (VE2) covers the complete range of angiographic applications, cardiac angiography, neuro-angiography, general angiography, surgery and surgical angiography, and radiographic/fluoroscopic procedures.

§ 892.1650 Image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system.
(a)
Identification. An image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system is a device intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting a pattern of x-radiation into a visible image through electronic amplification. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An anthrogram tray or radiology dental tray intended for use with an image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9. In addition, when intended as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, the fluoroscopic compression device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
