Regional West Physicians Clinic-Neurosurgery & Spine Center is pleased to now offer the Mazor X Stealth™ Edition Robotic Guidance System, robotic guided technology for spine surgeries.

Robotic guided spine surgery has three processes:

• Image-based 3D planning of surgery
• Precision of robotic guidance
• Real time image visualization during surgery with Stealth Navigation

Surgical planning is the foundation to robotic guided surgeries by providing the benefits of 3D images. A planning interface displays the images and allows the surgeon to plan where each implant will be precisely placed. To complete the precise planned placements, the surgeon performs the surgery using the robotic guidance platform, which enables a minimally invasive surgery. The Stealth Navigation displays progress in real time for the surgeon using MRI and CT scans taken pre-operatively.

Benefits of the robotic guidance platform include:

• Decreased blood loss

• Decreased time patient is under anesthesia

• Reduced radiation exposure

• Faster patient recovery time

• Shorter hospital stay

The robotic guidance platform for spine surgery can assist our surgeons in the treatment of many spine conditions, including:

• Spinal stenosis

• Spinal deformity

• Spinal trauma

• Spinal tumor

• Spinal sacroiliac (SI) joint disease

Visit with your physician for more information on robotic guided spine surgeries, or to find out if you are a candidate.
