SMART-C: The Secret Weapon Both World Series Teams Trust
When the World Series spotlight shines brightest, every pitch, swing, and inning carries championship consequences. Behind the scenes, both teams
Every weekend, the world’s fastest motocross riders push the limits of speed, power, and precision. And right alongside them, the Alpinestars Mobile Medical Unit travels from track to track, ready to respond in seconds when things don’t go as planned.
Inside this advanced mobile medical center, SMART-C has become an essential part of the team.
When a crash happens, the doctors and athletic trainers inside the medical unit rely on SMART-C to capture clear, immediate fluoroscopic images right on site — often before the dirt has even settled. The portable, battery-powered system delivers hospital-grade imaging in a compact form built for the realities of race-day medicine.
SPEED — When every second counts, SMART-C keeps pace. With setup in minutes, SMART-C delivers real-time imaging in moments, helping medical teams make quick, confident decisions without leaving the track.
“When the rider gets here, we X-ray him as soon as he hits the door and come up with a plan whether he can go back to riding, go to the hospital, or we can splint him.” — Dr. John Bodnar
POWER — SMART-C delivers the output needed to handle imaging demands, from fingers to femurs. The combination of battery operation and diagnostic strength allows the Alpinestars crew to perform at the highest level, without relying on hospital systems or wall power.
“It still amazes me to this day that it can have that much penetration from such a small unit — and that’s exactly what we needed.” — Dr. John Bodnar
PRECISION — When the diagnosis has to be right, SMART-C’s image quality delivers. SMART-C provides the clarity to spot even subtle fractures and alignment issues, enabling faster, more accurate return-to-ride decisions.
“I can get a picture of what I want to see and know whether it’s broken or not. That’s half the battle.” — Dr. John Bodnar
Week after week. City after city. SMART-C travels with the Alpinestars Mobile Medical Unit because it performs at the same level as the athletes it serves.
If SMART-C is strong enough, fast enough, and precise enough for SuperMotocross, imagine what it can do for you!

A New Era in Point-of-Care Imaging The way providers deploy diagnostic imaging is evolving fast. Handheld and portable x-ray systems
In remote southern Chad, access to essential medical imaging is far from guaranteed. Roads wash out. Equipment fails. Patients wait.
Turner Imaging Systems announced its acceptance into the NVIDIA Connect program, a collaboration poised to redefine the future of point-of-care diagnostics.
