ROBOTICS IN SPINE SURGERY. This transforms spine surgery from freehand procedures to highly-accurate, state-of-the-art robotic procedures, with less radiation. It is used for procedures including: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) Correction of Scoliosis and other complex spinal deformities.

A rapid rise in the use of spine surgical robots is attributed to a blend of technological improvements. Moreover, a rise in demand for minimally invasive surgeries has further boosted demand for surgical robots for spine.

Spine surgical robots have been widely used for minimally invasive procedures, spine fusion, scoliosis correction surgery, vertebroplasty, spinal biopsies, and others. These techniques cause minimal complications, reduce the risk of infections, cause less pain, and have a faster recovery time, which leads to shorter hospital stays as compared to traditional therapies and treatments.

Spine Surgical Robots are self-powered, computer-controlled devices programmed to aid in the positioning and manipulation of surgical instruments.
