Adhesive Provides Image-Guided Navigation
for Minimally Invasive Spine
Image-guided spinal navigation has traditionally involved a tradeoff. Physicians have to
either make a larger or additional incision to accommodate the clamp that enables
image registration and tracking, or forgo navigation technology to keep incisions small.
Stryker's SpineMask delivers non-invasive navigation for minimally invasive surgical
approaches. Placed on a patient's back, the adhesive device — in conjunction with
SpineMap 3D software — employs Stryker's proprietary neurosurgical tracking technology
to depict patient anatomy on Stryker's NAV3i navigation platform or a wide range of
intraoperative imaging devices.
