Neurosurgeons at Cincinnati-based Mayfield Brain & Spine have partnered with Good Samaritan Hospital, also in Cincinnati, to offer robotic imaging and navigation for spine surgery patients. 

Mayfield neurosurgeons Zachary Tempel, MD, and Michael Kachman, MD, began treating patients using the ExcelsiusGPS in April, allowing them to navigate patient-specific anatomy during surgery and more precisely screws during spine procedures, according to a May 12 press release sent to Becker’s. 

They were the first surgeons in the area to begin offering surgeries with the Globus robot, and now offer robotic procedures for patients at the hospital as well. 

“We are pleased to host Mayfield’s use of the ExcelsiusGPS platform at Good Samaritan Hospital and look forward to continuing our partnership with Mayfield to provide Cincinnati patients with the safest, most cutting-edge spine care available,” Kelvin Hanger, president of Good Samaritan Hospital, said in the release. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
