“The speed of the surface registration using pre-operative CT is remarkable and the accuracy is super. It can be applied to cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine procedures. It saves a lot of time compared to intra-operative spins. In the cervical spine, it is a whole new level of performance. When there is segmental spinal movement, I can re-register in a little more than 1 min. It is a complete game changer from a workflow and patient safety perspective.”

“Using the new technology has made the surgery easier, safer and more successful because it is so accurate.”
“There is a seamless transition between the patient and augmented reality. I was able to see exactly where to place screws.”
“With fluoroscopy, I would have to look away from the operating field at a screen situated 5-10 feet away from the patient.”

“Unlike the robot, I retain the tactile feel.”
“ The targeting accuracy with the 3D visualization targets on the patient is unprecedented.”
“ It is a paradigm shift in accuracy.”

“This is really revolutionary. This is more revolutionary than going from mechanical surgery to robotics. You are harnessing a new way to do surgery.”
“The robot just takes a lot of time to set up.”…“It is a big difference if you turn an OR day with three fusions into an OR day with two fusions. It affects the hospital revenue; it affects my income.”
“With this system, accuracy and time can both be solved for the spine.”
“It has the potential to be a game changer. It is a much bigger leap than mechanical to robot. It is a whole new concept that has the potential to be more efficient.”
“This is very simple. Very intuitive.”
“This is cool. This is awesome. This is the future. Anything that helps me to look at the patient and not at the screen.”
“With the robot, there is something that you give up. You relinquish the tactile feel.”
“I love that you can load any system into it. Open platform is a huge advantage.”
