What is it indicated for?

When used as a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, the GalileoTM Spinal Spacer System is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one level (C2 to TI) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies) of the cervical spine. Implants are to be packed with autogenous hone graft. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment. The GalileoTM Spinal Spacer System is to be used with a supplemental fixation system.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
