The use of C-arm fluoroscopy in intraoperative orthopaedic procedures has become an important tool in modern orthopaedic surgical practice. It enhances the technical proficiency of the surgeon in addition to reducing the morbidity and length of hospital stay of the patient. Despite the documented benefits of this device, there has been a growing concern about the increased radiation exposure to the surgical team. We therefore present the review of the literature on the usefulness of C-arm fluoroscopy, pitfalls in application of the machine as well as the harmful radiation effects and precautionary measures that need to be observed when using the C-arm fluoroscopy in orthopaedic surgical procedures.
在骨科手术中使用C型臂荧光透视已成为现代骨科手术实践中的一项重要工具。它不仅提高了外科医生的技术水平，还降低了患者的发病率和住院时间。尽管该设备有已被记录的益处，但人们越来越担心手术团队受到的辐射暴露增加。因此，我们对有关C型臂荧光透视的实用性、该机器应用中的缺陷以及在骨科手术中使用C型臂荧光透视时需要注意的有害辐射影响和预防措施的文献进行综述。
