Excelsius3D is an X-ray system designed for 2D fluoroscopy, 2D digital radiography and 3D imaging. It is indicated for use where a physician benefits from 2D and 3D data on anatomic structures and high-contrast objects with high X-ray attenuation such as bony anatomy and metallic objects, according to Globus. The imaging system integrates with the company’s flagship spine robot.
“The addition of Excelsius3D to our operating room has helped to streamline our navigation workflow with ExcelsiusGPS,” Dr. Goldstein said. “The intraoperative imaging technology enables us to efficiently visualize anatomy, offers three imaging modes in a single comprehensive system, and is easy for our radiology technicians to maneuver and position.”
