Robotic Spine Surgery

Enhancing Precision with Robotic Spine Surgery

At Big Apple Spine & Orthopedics, Dr. Arutyunyan and our team of orthopedic spine surgeons employ Computer Assisted Spine Surgery (CASS) to enhance precision and accuracy during spinal procedures. Traditional techniques can pose risks near vital structures like the spinal cord and nerves, which CASS mitigates by offering real-time tracking of surgical instruments and providing detailed 3D mapping of the spine. This technology allows for a more refined approach, minimizing complications and optimizing surgical outcomes.

Utilizing Advanced Technology

During CASS, Dr. Arutyunyan utilizes specialized tools and imaging software to navigate the complexities of spinal surgery. By incorporating instrument tracking technology and 3D imaging, he gains a comprehensive understanding of the patient’s anatomy and can perform the procedure with unparalleled precision. This level of detail surpasses that of traditional methods, ensuring safer and more effective surgeries.

Components of the CASS System

The CASS system comprises several key components, including a digital camera array for instrument tracking, smart instrumentation for precise maneuvers, monitors for real-time 3D visualization, and intuitive software for image-guided navigation. These components work synergistically to provide Dr. Arutyunyan with enhanced visibility and control during surgery, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes.

Enhanced Surgical Viewpoints

One of the primary advantages of CASS is its ability to offer multiple surgical viewpoints beyond what is visible in the exposed surgical field. With 3D imaging technology and smart instruments, Dr. Arutyunyan can visualize the spine and surrounding structures in greater detail, enabling him to navigate complex anatomy with confidence and accuracy.

Benefits of Computer-Assisted Spine Surgery

The benefits of CASS extend beyond enhanced visibility and precision. This technology allows for quicker operating times, improved safety, and increased efficiency in eligible spinal procedures. By utilizing advanced imaging and instrumentation, Dr. Arutyunyan can perform surgeries with greater confidence and achieve optimal patient outcomes.
