Dr. Smith was the first surgeon in Northern California to use augmented reality navigation for spinal surgery, according to the tweet. 

Xvision is an AR, wireless spine system that allows surgeons free movement within the operating room, improving surgery outcomes and eliminating surgeon attention shift between screens. 

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.
