OrthAlign has expanded its Lantern platform with the addition of the Balance feature. The instrument is designed to provide quantitative support to enhance accuracy and aid surgeons in soft-tissue balancing during primary and revision knee replacement.
The handheld Lantern device is a smart-phone sized instrument that allows for accurate positioning during partial and total knee arthroplasty. The Balance feature gives surgeons intra-operative information regarding the patient’s flexion and extension gaps.
“With technology becoming the standard of care in total joint replacement, delivering operationally and economically efficient technologies is key. Lantern Balance is designed to provide personalized alignment without the need for pre-operative imaging or capital equipment. Now, with Lantern, surgeons can take advanced surgical technologies to any site of service with ease,” said Eric Timko, Chairman and CEO of OrthAlign.
