Augmented Reality Surgical Navigation

MicrosoftTeams-image (256)

The entire operative footprint of VisAR

Transformative navigation technology where 2D or 3D images are superimposed over the patient's body allowing for unparalleled precision.

  • Navigational views and integrated targeting system

  • Precise instrument tracking (+/- 1mm) accuracy

  • Real-time 3D reconstruction and segmentation

  • Pre-operative planning

  • Intraoperative immersive viewing

  • 2-minute setup in the OR

"This is a transformative technology that provides the precision of a robot, the portability of a stethoscope, and the versatility of human-powered intelligence. Like a surgical GPS, VisAR provides a roadmap to guide the surgeon" - Dr. Wendell Gibby M.D.

Workflows

Surgeons have different workflow needs. VisAR provides various methods to meet those needs. A single command can initiate workflows with visual and verbal instructions to assist the surgeon.

 

Navigational Views

The image shows 2D sagittal, coronal, and axial views. VisAR reference display shows the actual instrument path vs. planned trajectory.

Disruptive Technology

VisAR augmented reality is the future.

HubSpot Video

“With this technology, it will be a game changer for Orthopedic Oncology because it is all about the margins. This will give us the opportunity to see the anatomy and the pathology, real-time in surgery."

Dr. Dadia Solomon, Chief of Orthopedic Oncology

FDA LOGO     

 

VisAR is currently FDA-cleared for intraoperative stereotactic spinal surgical guidance, for both minimally invasive (MISS) and open surgery. Additional FDA submissions are pending.

Using augmented reality to place a tough T5-T6 thoracic epidural catheter placement

Shows VisAR's ability to plan real-time while in the OR using a spin CT and ultrasound

VisAR is a disruptor for conventional navigation. It democratizes access and provides fast ROI

VisAR was used to place a catheter between T5 and T6 and it was so easy the anesthesiologist was doubtful it went in correctly. It did.

Pioneering Surgical Navigation

USBiops2y-1

View and Navigate Using Ultrasound in an OR

The VisAR system can integrate with ultrasound allowing a surgeon to fuse a previously taken CT with a real-time ultrasound in an operating room environment.

Dr. Michael Karsy
Neurosurgeon

"This is ground breaking, revolutionary technology!"

Dr. Gary Onik
Orthopedic Oncologist

"The VisAR system allows a physician to conduct complex surgical procedures in the most minimally invasive manner. This is how surgery will be performed in the future."

Dr. Arjun Sebastion
Orthopedic Surgeon

“This is the first time I’ve ever used any type of navigation technology that allows me to focus on where we’re working on the patient and also utilize navigation at the same time.” 

 

Dr. Ted Andrews
Spinal Surgeon

"I just trusted the system (VisAR) and placed screws that went against the tactile feedback and training. The proof is in the pudding, they were all correct!"
