Sunnybrook's advanced C-arm technology is integrated into their state-of-the-art hybrid operating room. This mobile X-ray system provides surgeons with high-resolution, real-time images during complex procedures.

The mobile C-arm systems are built into the hospital’s specialized surgical and imaging suites, allowing for real-time visualization of blood vessels, bones, and organs. Because these systems use fluoroscopic X-rays, they reduce the need for multi-step procedures, significantly lowering patient recovery times and anesthesia requirements.

HH Angus provided mechanical, electrical, and sprinkler engineering services for the renovation of Room AG-34 at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre to support the installation of a new Siemens ARTIS zee MP Tilting C-Arm imaging system. The project formed part of a broader redevelopment within the Imaging Suite and included renovations to adjacent support spaces, relocation of existing functions, and upgrades to accommodate advanced imaging technology.

The renovation involved replacing legacy imaging equipment with a modern Imaging Suite, including upgrades to HVAC systems, medical gases, power distribution, lighting, controls, infection prevention measures, and communications infrastructure. The completed installation included a new control room, equipment infrastructure, patient lift, shielding, and upgraded medical gas and electrical systems, all delivered within the constraints of an active healthcare environment.

The project was completed within an active hospital environment with limited available space and significant dimensional constraints identified following demolition. Careful coordination was required to relocate existing functions while maintaining ongoing operations within adjacent Imaging Suites. The design team collaborated closely with clinical staff, equipment vendors, contractors, and project stakeholders to integrate the new imaging technology into the existing facility infrastructure.
