Augmedics has treated 10,000 patients with the xvision Spine System. The landmark achievement marks a new record for the use of augmented reality navigation for spine surgery.
“Since inception, Augmedics has been a company of firsts – the first FDA-cleared AR navigation system for surgery, the first augmented reality spine surgeries in US, the first AR clinical accuracy studies,” said Augmedics President & CEO Paul Ziegler. “With that, there has always been a high degree of interest in AR and its potential to improve the safety and efficacy of spine surgery. The milestone of 10,000 surgeries is not only a celebration of 10,000 patient lives impacted but furthers our belief we are fundamentally changing the surgical status quo. AR is here to stay.”
The 10,000 patient milestone comes as Augmedics’ initiates U.S. commercial launch of its CT-Fluoro registration method, a move that greatly expands navigation access for spine surgeons and further builds on the flexibility of xvision’s open platform system.
“Our mission to break down barriers to adoption and bring the benefits of navigation to surgeons and their patients remains steadfast,” said Ziegler. “The milestone of 10,000 patients and all it represents – the lessons learned, our growing body of clinical evidence, our surgeon advisors – is significant. Add to that the launch of CT-Fluoro, which significantly impacts the ease and access of surgical navigation, and it feels like we’re on the cusp of something really special.”
