A standard universal C-arm language: Assessing its need and its likelihood of acceptance.

Intraoperative fluoroscopy has facilitated improvements in surgical procedures across various subspecialties but has resulted in increased radiation exposure to the patient and surgeon. The results of a survey administered to 447 orthopedic surgeons and radiological technologists show that there is no standard universal c-arm language, that significant confusion and miscommunication exists between surgeons and technologists because of this, that unnecessary radiation exposure occurs as a direct consequence of this miscommunication, and that the vast majority of respondents would accept a standardized language similar to the one proposed in this study. This could potentially lead to less miscommunication and radiation exposure.
