The Mazor Robotic Spine System is technology designed to help spine surgeons perform more precise procedures. The robot promotes more accurate pedicle screw placement and surgeons can eventually reduce surgical time and blood loss, according to Kornelis Poelstra, MD, of The Spine Institute on the Emerald Coast.

 

The technology also includes preoperative planning with three-dimensional images of the patient.
