Newheek NK103 C-Arm Collimator Transforms Clinics in Nigeria & Kenya

Across Nigeria and Kenya, small hospitals, surgical centers and mobile clinics face a shared challenge: delivering safe, precise X-ray imaging in orthopedic and emergency cases without compromising on radiation safety. The Newheek NK103 X-ray collimator has emerged as a game-changing solution for local C-arm and portable X-ray systems, addressing these critical needs.

Built to withstand the demands of daily clinical use, the NK103 collimator offers precise manual field adjustment and a clear light field indicator, allowing surgeons and radiographers to align the radiation beam exactly to the target area. This accuracy significantly cuts down scatter radiation, protecting both medical staff and patients from unnecessary exposure—a key concern in facilities with limited shielding resources.

With a maximum voltage rating of 90KV and a flexible radiation field range up to 430×430mm at 90cm SID, the collimator adapts seamlessly to common orthopedic procedures like fracture reduction, joint repair and foreign body removal. Its compact, lightweight design (just 2.6kg) makes it easy to install on both new and existing C-arm units, even in the tight operating rooms found in many urban and rural facilities.

In mobile medical outreach programs across Kenya, the NK103’s rugged construction and simple operation shine. Field teams can quickly set up the collimator for on-site examinations, delivering reliable imaging to underserved communities. Local biomedical technicians also appreciate its low-maintenance design and easy compatibility with most X-ray generators, making it a cost-effective upgrade that requires no complex system overhauls.

Hospitals in Lagos and Nairobi that have adopted the NK103 report improved procedure efficiency, reduced retake rates and better radiation safety compliance. For healthcare providers across Nigeria and Kenya, this collimator is more than just an accessory—it’s a practical tool that elevates the quality and safety of daily patient care.
