What is it indicated for?
Spine & Trauma Navigation is intended as an intraoperative image-guided localization system to enable open and minimally invasive surgery. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system to virtual computer image space on a patient’s preoperative or intraoperative 2D or 3D image data.

Read the full statement (149 words)
Spine & Trauma Navigation is intended as an intraoperative image-guided localization system to enable open and minimally invasive surgery. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system to virtual computer image space on a patient’s preoperative or intraoperative 2D or 3D image data.
Spine & Trauma Navigation enables computer-assisted navigation of medical image data, which can either be acquired preoperatively or intraoperatively by an appropriate image acquisition system. The software offers screw and interbody device planning and navigation with surgical instruments.
The system is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the skull, the pelvis, a long bone or vertebra can be identified relative to the acquired image (CT, MR, 3D fluoroscopic image reconstruction or 2D fluoroscopic image) and/or an image databased model of the anatomy.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
