Problem
Spine surgeries demand high precision for procedures like pedicle screw placement and tissue ablation, where even slight inaccuracies can lead to complications. Traditional surgical methods can be limited by human factors, potentially affecting patient outcomes and procedure times.
Solution
Deneb Medical's Izar is a robotic surgery station designed to enhance precision and safety in spine procedures. The platform integrates into existing operating room workflows, allowing surgeons to use their preferred instruments while providing robotic guidance for pedicle screw placement and tissue ablation. Izar utilizes image-based registration for accurate navigation and enables surgeons to plan and execute procedures with sub-millimetric accuracy. The system supports various spine surgeries, including spinal stenosis, fusion, deformity correction, and tumor resection, offering a versatile solution for optimizing surgical outcomes.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes spine surgeons (both neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons) and hospitals seeking to improve the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of spine procedures.
