Paired with Medtronic’s StealthStation S8 system, the AR technology will track surgical instruments and guide surgeons during procedures.

“We believe by combining Medtronic’s market-leading surgical navigation, and Surgical Theater’s trailblazing visualization capabilities, SyncAR technology now offers the most comprehensive solution for neurosurgical planning, workflow and operative execution,” Moty Avisar, CEO of Surgical Theater said.
