The electromagnetic navigation system provides reliable support for surgeons during minimally-invasive spine procedures. It can be integrated easily into any operating room and connected to the clinic network. Operation of the device is intuitive and user-friendly.
The system is FDA cleared and has won the 2019 Spine Technology Award.
Live instrument display without X-Ray exposure
The navigation system displays the position and orientation of all tracked instruments relative to the patient anatomy in real-time. Only two X-Rays are taken at the start of the procedure. They are registered to the patient with a simple registration tool, which can be removed after the registration process. During surgery the view provided by the navigation system is similar to a „live“ X-Ray, but without continuous exposure to X-Ray radiation and with the additional advantage that both anterior-posterior and lateral views are updated simultaneously.
Operational concept with intention recognition
Thanks to a sophisticated user guidance system, the required number of necessary interaction steps is minimal. The system anticipates the interaction the surgeon intends, based on the workflow in Spine surgery, and actively facilitates the operation. No further user input is required during the course of the procedure. The system’s simplicity in control is thereby un- paralleled. Preparation time is reduced to a minimum, and there is no need for a disruptive foot pedal.
Minimal footprint in the operating room
The navigation system can easily be integrated into any equipment trolley and endoscopy tower.
