Robotic Spine Surgery

Leading Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery

New England Baptist Hospital (NEBH) Spine Center was the first in Massachusetts to add a robotic guidance system to its spine surgery program.

This means you get care from a team highly skilled in robot-assisted surgery. Since 2018, our spine surgeons have used the Medtronic Stealth navigation system and the Medtronic Mazor XTM Platform to provide top quality spine surgery. 

Improved Precision with Planning & Guidance

The robotic platform streamlines three complex spine surgery processes:

• Image-based 3D surgery planning
• Intra-operative guidance using precision mechanics
• Intra-operative verification of therapy placement using the X-Eye camera

The more exact a complex or minimally invasive procedure can be, the better the benefits for you. For example, if your treatment involves using an implant to stabilize your spine, proper placement is essential. Our robotic surgery system lets your care team plan a procedure in advance. The robot helps the surgeon execute that plan with greater precision and efficiency.

The surgeon is always in control of the robot. The robotic platform uses:

• CT images to build a 3D simulation of your spine
• 3D planning to map out the best surgical approach
• Computer analytics to give your surgeon pre-operative data
• Data analysis to provide intra-operative guidance during the procedure
