Xvision uses a headset and augmented reality to help surgeons see a patient’s anatomy during procedures. It’s designed to increase precision and efficiency.

“This 3D-projected image of the vertebra shows you in real time what the anatomy is and takes any uncertainty out of the procedure,” Ngoc Nguyen, MD, a spine surgeon at SMH, said in the release. “You know exactly where you’re placing every screw.”

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.
