What is Stryker navigation system?
The Stryker Orthopedic Surgical Navigation System provides computer-assisted navigation technology using tracking devices that provide our surgeons with a fuller picture of a patient’s joint mechanics.
What software does Stryker use?
OrthoMap precision knee navigation software Based on each patient’s unique anatomy, Stryker’s sophisticated sizing and positioning algorithm offers enhanced visualization of the anterior match to calculate the optimal implant size, flexion and AP position to avoid notching.
What is ENT navigation system?
ENT surgery surgical navigation systemFusion™ ENT Navigation delivers meaningful innovation. With reliable accuracy, you can see the instrument-tip location on the screen — which may allow more thorough dissection and reduced complication risk in select patients.
What is spine navigation?
Navigation assisted spine surgery is a group of technologies, which allow the surgeon to access real-time, three dimensional and virtual images of the spine in relation to the surgical instruments intraoperatively. Spine navigation was initially used to improve the accuracy of pedicle screw placement.
How are computers used in surgery?
Sometimes referred to as robotic surgery, RAS devices enable the surgeon to use computer and software technology to control and move surgical instruments through one or more tiny incisions in the patient’s body (minimally invasive) for a variety of surgical procedures.
How does guided image surgery work?
Similar to a car or mobile Global Positioning System (GPS), image guided surgery systems use cameras or electromagnetic fields to capture and relay the patient’s anatomy and the surgeon’s precise movements in relation to the patient, to computer monitors in the operating room.
How ear nose and throat are connected?
The middle ear is connected to the top of the back of the throat by the Eustachian tube which is lined with mucous, just like the inside of the nose and throat. The Eustachian tube includes the tiny bones through which sound travels to the ear.
What is a navigational CT scan?
The tools may take tissue samples or mark an area for treatment. A CT scan is used to create 3-dimentional images to map the airways. The images are downloaded into a computer which helps navigate the bronchoscope into the smaller airways of the lungs.
What is 7D navigation?
The 7D Surgical FLASH™ Navigation System virtually replaces standard X-ray imagery, providing the surgical team with a fast, accurate and radiation-free tool for the placement of spinal implants. 7D Surgical FLASH™ is like a GPS for back surgery – helping surgeons pinpoint exactly where to focus.
What is surgical navigation system?
Surgical navigation technology allows surgeons to precisely track instrument positions and then project the instrument position onto the preoperative imaging data. This sophisticated technology is often compared to GPS tracking, which allows travelers to see their position on a map.
What machines do surgeons use?
Mechanical cutters (scalpels, lancets, trocars, Harmonic scalpel, rongeurs etc.) Dilators and specula, for access to narrow passages or incisions. Suction tips and tubes, for removal of bodily fluids.
What is the Stryker NAV3 surgical navigation platform?
The Stryker NAV3 Platform is the next generation of our surgical navigation platforms. With its sleek design and small footprint, this fully equipped mobile unit integrates seamlessly into the operating room and brings you the ultimate navigation experience.
Is the Stryker TGS navigation system augmented reality?
Augmented reality is finally here. Designed from the ground up with ENT surgeon feedback and key opinion leaders (KOL) insight, our TGS navigation system offers standard-of-care EM technology combined with groundbreaking Scopis augmented reality. Introducing a powerful combination.
Who is the inventor of the Stryker ENT system?
Stryker ENT navigation system powered by Scopis software, was developed with Professor Peter J. Wormald, of Adelaide, Australia, and a worldwide network of leading KOLs in ENT. This solution allows the analysis and identification of sinus cells in the complex patient anatomy and planning of the natural drainage pathways through the sinus cavity.
