The device was created by USF surgeons and prints a custom 3D model of a patient’s knee or shoulder so physicians can print a custom guide that lines up with the patient’s exact anatomy.
The guide is used in the operating room to line up surgical tools and make sure incisions are as accurate as possible.
USF Health currently holds the patent for the Patient Specific Guide, which is in use nationwide.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
