What is it indicated for?

Spinal Elements Navigated Instruments are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Spinal Elements screws (Overwatch®, Savannah® and Mercury® Fixation Systems) during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or minimally invasive procedures. These instruments are designed for use with the Medtronic StealthStation® System, which is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as vertebra, can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks of the anatomy.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
