Invuity launches drop-in intracavity illuminator

Spinal Tech

Invuity launched the Waveguide XT System, a universal drop-in illuminator for minimal access surgery.

The product is part of Invuity's proprietary photonics-based portfolio to address the challenges of minimal access surgery and improve outcomes. The technology illuminates the surgical site allowing for better visualization of tissue planes, critical structures and anatomical landmarks. The system was developed in response to the growing need for improved visualization as surgeons are working through increasingly smaller incisions.

 

The system can be placed within the incision to direct and shape the illumination deep into the disc space without risk of thermal tissue damage. "With this innovative drop-in device, surgeons benefit from superior visualization without altering their standard surgical technique or instrumentation," said Warran F. Neely, MD, a neurosurgeon with Christus Santa Rosa Health System in San Antonio.
