Medical c-arm is an imaging scanner intensifier. It is utilized for fluoroscopic intraoperative imaging during several applications such as emergency care procedures, critical care, orthopedic, and surgical. The C-shaped arm connects the x-ray source and x-ray detector that precisely and accurately reduces patient discomfort in surgical and non-surgical procedures. The devices work on the principles of X-ray technology. The device provides high-resolution real-time X-ray images, which help physicians monitor the surgery progress and make critical corrections instantly, if necessary. The device is majorly used in operating rooms of clinics and hospitals.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON MEDICAL C-ARM SYSTEM MARKET
COVID-19 first began in Wuhan (China) during December 2019, and since then, it has spread at a fast pace across the globe. The US, India, Brazil, Russia, France, UK, Turkey, Italy, and Spain are some of the worst affected countries in terms of confirmed cases and reported deaths. The COVID-19 has been affecting economies and industries in various countries due to lockdowns, travel bans, and business shutdowns. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the medical c-arm system market as well. Medical c-arms are used in image-guided procedures, which are elective, but got postponed due to increasing cases of COVID 19. This resulted in hospitals being discouraged and feared the investments in high-cost capital equipment during the current pandemic due to the consequences, so they focus more on ventilators or other treatment supporting devices. It was found that during peak disruption to hospital services due to the pandemic, million elective surgeries worldwide were canceled or delayed. However, while handling COVID-19 positive patients who require surgery, a fully equipped operating room needs to be designed, with a mobile C-arm fluoroscopic X-ray system for radiology along with the availability of healthcare professionals for operating. Hence, the pandemic and its significant effect on the healthcare industry show that the market will continue to grow at a steady rate during the forecast period.
