What is it indicated for?

The Smith & Nephew SURESHOT™ Targeting System is intended to be an intraoperative image guided localization system. It is a computer assisted orthopedic surgery tool to aid the surgeon with drill positioning for screws during intramedullary nail implantation. It provides information to the surgeon that is used to place surgical instruments during surgery utilizing intraoperatively obtained electromagnetic tracking data. The Smith & Nephew SURESHOT™ Targeting System is indicated for long bone fractures treated with intramedullary nails in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
