He used the system for an 80-year-old patient with severe lumbar stenosis, PathKeeper said in a May 3 news release. The system uses artificial intelligence and laser-optic 3D cameras for navigation and eliminates radiation exposure in the operating room.

PathKeeper has also been used in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Maryland.

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.
