What’s New at AANS 2023 in Los Angeles
Brainlab is proud to showcase our latest innovations that support cranial and spinal neurosurgery procedures ranging from imaging and navigation technology to planning software and robotics.
Detailed Product Information
Cranial Navigation
Brainlab Cranial Navigation features informed approach planning with consolidated clinical data.
Experience a new dimension with Ultrasound Navigation and the automated rigid Ultrasound-MRI1 image fusion. We deliver innovative, science-backed technology to help you achieve your goal of maximum safe tumor or lesion resection, even if brain shift or other navigational inaccuracies occur during surgery.
Integrated with a ZEISS KINEVO® 900, the Brainlab Microscope Navigation software provides unique augmented reality views, navigation-controlled robotics and picture-in-picture views.
Experience high precision drilling and biopsy needle alignment with the new Brainlab VarioGuide® Alignment System. Achieve precision during navigated frameless biopsies with VarioGuide and the Disposable Pre-calibrated Biopsy Needle.
Meet with experts and experience the latest in advanced cranial planning. Elements BOLD MRI Mapping 1 expands the utilization of pre-operative imaging with the entire Brainlab Elements planning portfolio for pre-surgical assessment and image-guided surgery.
1 Not yet commercially available in the United States and several countries (CE mark available)
Robotic Suite
The Robotic Suite creates an ecosystem of accuracy at every step of the surgical workflow by leveraging versatile software to combine three Brainlab products with state-of-the-art modalities – high-resolution robotic imaging from Loop-X, data processing and precise navigation with Curve and automatic, stable surgical support with the next-generation robotic arm, Cirq. Each product in the Robotic Suite can be used individually, but the synchronized use of the three products can offer steady, unified and uninterrupted support during surgical procedures.
Spine Planning and Navigation
Elements Spine Planning2 – Plan screws with confidence and efficiency by leveraging navigation and robotics
Experience our latest developments in Spine Planning and navigation live at our booth Navigation and robotics have made it clear that screw planning is becoming a necessity and standard practice in spine surgery. With the new spine planning software, you can now benefit from level detection on 2D and 3D data, automated screw planning throughout the complete spine, from sacrum to cervix, and proposed measurements. Automated functions deliver the results and information within seconds. As a result, this has the potential to save a lot of time in daily routines and increase efficiency of entire clinical workflows from planning to logistics to intraoperative data management.
