What is cine fluoroscopic unit?
A cine fluoroscopic unit is a medical imaging device that combines a fluoroscope (which provides real-time X-ray images) with a cine camera (which records continuous motion pictures). This technology is commonly used to capture dynamic images of internal structures such as the heart or blood vessels in motion, allowing for detailed analysis of function and movement.
