## Indications for use
The Firebird SI Navigation System instruments are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Orthofix Firebird SI Fusion System screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or minimally invasive procedures. The Firebird SI Navigation instruments are specifically 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 a vertebra or pelvis can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks for the anatomy.
