Here are four insights:

 

1. The O-arm uses X-rays and images to offer real-time, three-dimensional navigation during the process of surgery.

 

2. The technology allows surgeons to more accurately place implants and create smaller incisions, resulting in reduced blood loss and tissue damage.

 

3. The two medical centers are also using the StealthStation Surgical Navigation System, which will help improve outcomes for spine surgery patients.

 

4. The centers will utilize the new technology for spinal deformity surgery, MIS spine surgeon, spinal trauma surgery, spinal tumor surgery and revision surgery.
