Spine Surgery with Robotic Guidance

Understanding Robotic Guidance Technology & Robotically Assisted Surgery

Understanding how surgical robotic guidance technology works and why it’s used helps patients work in partnership with their physician and surgeon to make informed decisions about medical care.

Mazor X Stealth™ Edition Robotic Guidance System

The Mazor X Stealth™ Edition Robotic Guidance System

Our adult and pediatric surgeons strive to provide the best, safest surgical care. That’s why our team uses the Mazor X Stealth™ Edition Robotic Guidance System, a technology that assists with precision and predictability in surgical procedures. Comprising a computer, specialized software and specialized instrumentation, the system allows our surgeons to plan where and how they will operate on your spine. During Mazor X-guided robotic spine surgery, an automated robotic “arm” holds key surgical instrumentation in place for the surgeon. The robotic guidance helps your surgeon execute their plan and perform the surgery with optimal precision.

Benefits of the Mazor X™ System

• Assists surgeons with procedure planning by providing 3D images of the patient’s anatomy
• Provides enhanced surgical predictability through robotic guidance
• Enables surgeons to customize their approach to match specific patient needs
• Provides 3D visualization of the patient’s anatomy and the placement of surgical instrumentation throughout the procedure
