Introducing

TRUE 3D
Weight Bearing
Imaging for Foot & Ankle

You cant know what you dont see.

Take a stand for uncompromised vision in foot & ankle diagnosis.

The power and precision of pedCAT puts optimal treatment planning at your fingertips for greater confidence of increased predictability in surgical outcomes. The first TRUE weight bearing CT imaging system, pedCAT is the in-office solution for advanced diagnostic imaging requirements of foot and ankle surgeons.

Greater Information Optimized Treatment

Capture 3D Volume to add a new dimension to diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment planning. Reveal indications under true physiologic weight bearing loads without bony superimpositions and plan with greater accuracy. Preoperative Planning Make precise assessments of relative bone positions and angulations for treating Hallux Valgus, Hallux Limitus/ Rigidus, Metatarsal weight bearing parabola, Midfoot dislocation, Flat foot correction, Rearfoot fusion, etc. Determine quality of bone as noted by the absence or presence of bone cysts Diagnose, Confirm or Rule Out Fractures Accurately identify the number, size and position of fracture fragments Identify the relationship between the fracture and adjacent joints Evaluate joint depression and complex neuropathic arthropathy

Communicate

STAND & SCAN your patient in 68 seconds or less

TREATMENT PLAN with intuitive yet powerful visualization software. Review data in multiple slice planes: axial, coronal, sagittal, and 3D renderings. Make distance and angle measurements. COMMUNICATE via 3D visualization with the patient for greater plan acceptance. Put Advanced Imaging Technology to work for you. SUPERIOR DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION at a LOW DOSE: Cone beam CT provides high quality 3D imaging data comparable to conventional CT with significantly less radiation. POINT-OF-CARE: Compact design facilitating in-office accessibility. PROVEN TECHNOLOGY: Cone Beam CT imaging has revolutionized treatment paths in dental and ENT practices in the past 10 years, and is now being adapted by the foot and ankle community.

Preoperative planning of the metatarsal weight bearing parabola.

Early detection
Metatarsal Parabola, coronal slice with measurements

Preoperatively plan calcaneal medial displacement osteotomy. Identify the weight bearing position of the calcaneal tubercle in relation to the ankle mortise. The surgeon may then determine the amount of medial calcaneal displacement needed to place the medial calcaneal tubercle in the optimal position.
