The Agfa IMPAX OT3000 Orthopedic workstation is designed to help orthopedic surgeons and specialists access images, plan surgical procedures, educate patients and monitor patient progress in a digital environment.
As an add-on component to the IMPAX client, the OT3000 orthopedic application provides digital planning to images acquired through the PACS system. These images can be utilized to place digital templates that reflect actual prosthetic implants on patients' images helping the surgeon plan the surgical placement of the implant. These plans can be shown to patients to explain the procedure they will undergo and to help them understand the pathology present.
The application consists of the following components:
* Hip Prosthetic Planning
· Knee Prosthetic Planning
· Biometry Planning - takes into account patient motion and metrics
· Coxometry - tracking of known measurement values in pediatrics to determine surgical intervention
· Osteotomy - determines optimum osteotomy locations
* Impax Diagnostic Workstation
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
