A new augmented reality (AR) surgical guidance technology called the Xvision Spine System allows our surgeons to actually “see” your spine in 3D through the skin during spinal implant surgery.
Similar to a real-time GPS, “see-through” vision-guided surgery lets your surgeon know exactly where to place the implants in your unique anatomy, and it is bringing a new standard of personalization and care to the operating room. The Xvision Spine System is different from other image guidance systems as it keeps your surgeon’s focus directly on you, rather than a distant screen that displays your anatomy.
