Problem
Current surgical techniques for orthopedic and neurosurgical procedures often struggle to access hard-to-reach anatomical locations, potentially compromising precision and patient outcomes. The limitations of existing tools can make it difficult for surgeons to navigate complex anatomical structures effectively.
Solution
ARTS Surgical Inc. is developing steerable drilling technology designed to enhance precision in orthopedic and neurosurgical interventions. Their system enables surgeons to navigate to and operate on previously inaccessible areas with greater control and accuracy. By improving access and maneuverability, the technology aims to minimize collateral damage to surrounding tissues and improve the overall efficacy of surgical procedures. The company's solution focuses on providing surgeons with enhanced capabilities for complex cases, potentially leading to improved patient outcomes and reduced recovery times.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons specializing in complex procedures requiring precise access to difficult-to-reach anatomical locations.
Features
- Steerable drill tip for enhanced maneuverability within the surgical site.
- Real-time imaging integration for precise navigation and targeting.
- Haptic feedback system to provide tactile information to the surgeon during drilling.
- Customizable drill parameters to accommodate varying bone densities and tissue types.
- Compact and ergonomic design for ease of use in the operating room.
