Orthoscan's TAU MVP, a breakthrough dual modality mini C‑arm, arrives at AAOS 2026 with a leap in orthopedic imaging unlike anything before. By combining fluoroscopy and arthroscopy in one compact platform, it unlocks deeper insight, instant clarity, and powerful real‑time control that pushes surgical precision into an entirely new realm.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Orthoscan, a division of Ziehm-Orthoscan, Inc., is set to disrupt the orthopedic imaging landscape with the launch of TAU MVP, the first mini C‑arm to merge Fluoroscopy and Arthroscopy into single mobile imaging platform. The company will reveal this category‑defining innovation at the 2026 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Annual Meeting at Booth 1139.
TAU MVP does not refine existing technology. It rewrites the rules.
For the first time, surgeons can access true dual modality imaging in a compact mobile platform that delivers deeper insight, faster clarity, and total control inside and around the joint. TAU MVP gives clinicians unprecedented clarity, immediate control, and a fuller clinical picture during procedures that demand accuracy.
"TAU MVP represents a seismic shift in how orthopedic procedures are guided," said Travis Prikryl, VP of Sales. "By bringing real-time X-ray and live intra‑articular visualization together, we are empowering surgeons with a level of visibility and confidence that has never existed in a mini C-arm. This is not an incremental step forward; it is a transformation."
Why TAU MVP Is a Breakthrough
- Dual Image Mode delivers simultaneous fluoroscopy and arthroscopy views that sharpen decision-making in the moments that matter most.
- Instant arthroscopy activation ensures plug-and-go performance, allowing surgeons to keep procedures moving without interruption.
- Single-handed scope control unlocks a new level of freedom and precision, enabling surgeons to maneuver effortlessly while maintaining focus on the field.
- Fully integrated multi-modality imaging brings a complete view of joint structures and motion into one compact system to elevate diagnostic accuracy.
The impact:
Fewer blind spots.
Greater certainty.
A more complete picture delivered faster than ever.
