Spine & Trauma NavigationRewriting every backstory

You have the freedom to choose the registration method that fits your case, your workflow and your preferences. Our Surface Matching feature gives you the option to register your patient in open cases using preoperative CT and enables a fully radiation-free workflow using synthetic CT². Ideal for your MIS cases, Loop-X Mobile Imaging Robot provides automatic patient registration and delivers low-dose updates of the 3D dataset registration with only two additional 2D shots. Ultimately, our open platform allows you to integrate any of your existing image acquisition systems, supporting a standardized and reliable workflow for automatic image registration.

Correct for variations in spine curvature that occur due to preoperative imaging in the supine positioning and intraoperative imaging in the prone position. Elements Curvature Correction Spine uses elastic fusion to account for the natural flexibility of the spine. The software is ideal for fusing preoperative MR and CT, even when using multilevel intraoperative iCT and cone beam CT scans. Ultimately, you have the confidence that your preoperative screw plan and soft tissue information are up to date in the O.R.

Use the instruments that are best for each patient and case with our open platform solution. Brainlab and many partner instruments are pre-calibrated and can be used within seconds. For maximum flexibility, you can use our third-party instrument adapter clamp to navigate rigid instruments such as endoscopes. Create personalized favorite groups for different users and procedures, which allows for a tailored experience, and makes it easy and convenient to manage instruments according to specific needs or preferences.

Navigate using 3D scans (CT, MR or synthetic CT), 2D images with Loop-X imaging robot and planning data at all stages of surgery—from incision planning to implant placement. Gain additional anatomical context with inline, 3D, DRR, probe’s eye and autopilot views, empowering accurate and confident navigation of implants and instruments. 

Gain maximum flexibility during surgical procedures with Spine & Trauma Navigation. Straightforward, intraoperative screw trajectory planning, including a ruler with instrument tip extension, enables you to plan screws on the go and even update your pre-operative screw plan. This is particularly valuable when anatomy or exposure differs from the preoperative plan due to muscle or soft tissue position, allowing you to adapt and achieve optimal screw placement.

Prepare disc space and optimize cage placement with interbody navigation. Quick and straightforward calibration enables accurate navigation of rectangular and kidney-shaped interbody cages from either a posterior or lateral approach. Real-time guidance helps verify implant trajectory and positioning before final placement. 

Mitigate scaling issues and intraoperative guesswork during rod bending by pre-planning the sagittal alignment with Elements Spine Planning. Once you have adjusted the patient-specific spine avatar to the desired postoperative outcome, the planning software recommends the rod shape in the sagittal plane.

Connect every stage of your workflow seamlessly with Brainlab navigation. Take advantage of our open platform or seamlessly connect with our broader ecosystem including preoperative planning software, imaging, robotics, mixed reality and microscopy, helping you stay aligned with your surgical plan and move confidently through each step of the procedure.
