Fortis Noida acquires ‘O-arm’ Intra-Operative X-Ray Technology; A First in Noida

- This cutting-edge technology is set to transform complex surgeries, particularly for 
the orthopaedic, neurological and trauma care –

Noida, 13th August, 2025: In a major leap for advanced surgical care, Fortis Hospital Noida has 
become the first hospital in Noida to install the state-of-the-art ‘O-arm’ intra-operative X-ray 
system. This breakthrough technology enables surgeons to visualise bones, implants - screws, 
plates, rods and catheters with high precision during surgery. Its highly enabled technological design 
enables the patient to be positioned within the circular scanner for a complete spine scan. This supports 
minimally invasive techniques, shorter operation times and significantly lower radiation exposure for both 
patients and medical teams. 

When used with neuro navigation, the system acts like a GPS inside the body and enables surgeons to 
place implants with 99.9 percent accuracy while reducing surgical trauma and recovery time. Smaller 
incisions and minimal muscle injury contribute to faster healing and a reduced risk of infection.

Speaking about the new technology, Dr Rahul Gupta, Senior Director and HOD, Neuro and Spine Surgery, 
Fortis Hospital, Noida said, “The O-arm will greatly improve the accuracy and safety of surgeries. With 
advanced imaging and real time navigation, we can perform complex procedures with smaller cuts, less 
muscle damage, lower radiation exposure and quicker recovery time for patients. This pioneering 
technology significantly reduces surgery duration, lowers infection risks and enhances recovery outcomes. 

For patients, it means less pain, smaller scars and a quicker return to normal life. For surgeons, it offers 
unmatched clarity and confidence during critical procedures.”

With this addition, Fortis Hospital Noida further strengthens its position as a leader in healthcare 
technology. Fortis Noida is already equipped with modular operation theatres, robotic surgery capabilities 

and high-definition imaging systems, enabling it to deliver excellent medical care to patients from across 
the region.
