ExcelsiusXR™, when used in conjunction with ExcelsiusHub™ and/or ExcelsiusGPS®, is intended for use as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures to be used by surgeons for navigating and/or guiding compatible surgical instruments in open or percutaneous procedures provided that the required fiducial markers and rigid patient anatomy can be identified on CT scans or fluoroscopy. This system is indicated for the placement of spinal and orthopedic (Sacroiliac, Ulna, and Tibia) bone screws, and interbody fusion devices.

The ExcelsiusXR™ Headset displays 2D stereotactic images and 3D virtual anatomy images, and displays the virtual instrument location in relation to the virtual anatomy to assist in percutaneous visualization and trajectory planning. This headset should not be relied upon solely for absolute positional information and should always be used in conjunction with the primary stereotactic display.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
