## Indications for use
The PiGalileo 4th Generation System is intended for use as a stereotaxic instrument to assist in the positioning of total knee and total hip replacement components intra-operatively. The system is a computer controlled image guided system equipped with a three-dimensional tracking sub-system. The PiGalileo System is intended to assist the surgeon in determining reference alignment axes in relation to anatomical landmarks; as such instruments are precisely positioned relative to these axes by displaying their locations. This allows for accurate positioning of instruments used for total knee and total hip replacement surgery and provides intraoperative measurements of bone alignment.
