Orthopedic imaging developer OrthoScan of Scottsdale, AZ, launched a new version of its mini C-arm with a flat detector at this week's American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons annual meeting in New Orleans.
The addition of the flat detector is designed for enhanced image quality and lower dose, according to OrthoScan.
The product launch follows a new round of financing for OrthoScan. 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.

![Representative example of a 16-year-old male patient with underlying X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy. (A, B) Paired anteroposterior (AP) chest radiograph and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) report shows lumbar spine (L1 through L4) areal bone mineral density (BMD). The DXA report was reformatted for anonymization and improved readability. The patient had low BMD (Z score ≤ −2.0). (C) Model (chest radiography [CXR]–BMD) output shows the predicted raw BMD and Z score in comparison with the DXA reference standard, together with interpretability analyses using Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and gradient-weighted class activation maps. The patient was classified as having low BMD, consistent with the reference standard. AM = age-matched, DEXA = dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, RM2 = room 2, SNUH = Seoul National University Hospital, YA = young adult.](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/ai-children-bone-density.0snnf2EJjr.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
