The Ion-L Navigated Instruments are intended to be used with the Ion-L System Facet Implants during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures, specifically the lumbar facet joint, in either open or minimally invasive procedures. These instruments are specifically designed for use with the Medtronic StealthStation System S8, 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 the pelvis or vertebra, can be identified relative to a CT or MRI based model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks of the anatomy. Fluoroscopy must be used to confirm final implant placement.

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