What is it indicated for?

CUVIS-spine is intended for use as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures and for the spatial positioning and orientation of guide bush to be used by surgeons for navigating and/or guiding compatible surgical instruments in open or percutaneous pedicle screw placement provided that the required markers and rigid patient anatomy can be identified on O-arm or C-arm.

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