Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery
At Covenant Spine and Neurology, we are committed to providing the most advanced spinal treatments available, including Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery. This innovative approach enhances surgical precision, minimizes risks, and supports faster recovery, helping patients return to daily life with less pain and downtime. By combining robotic technology with minimally invasive techniques, our highly trained surgeons perform spine procedures with unmatched accuracy, leading to safer operations and improved long-term results.
What Is Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery?
Robotic-assisted spine surgery represents a breakthrough in spinal care. This technology combines the expertise of skilled surgeons with robotic guidance systems that provide:
-
3D navigation for real-time imaging and planning.
-
Pinpoint accuracy in placing screws, implants, and spinal hardware.
-
Enhanced safety through reduced human error and optimized precision.
Unlike traditional surgery, which relies solely on surgeon experience and X-ray guidance, robotic systems provide detailed 3D models, preoperative planning tools, and intraoperative navigation—ensuring more accurate outcomes with fewer complications.
How Robotic-Assisted Surgery Works
Robotic-assisted technology enhances every stage of spinal surgery:
-
Pre-surgical planning: 3D models of your spine guide the best surgical approach.
-
Real-time navigation: Robotic systems provide constant feedback for precise movements.
-
Minimized tissue disruption: Smaller incisions reduce scarring, blood loss, and pain.
-
Implant accuracy: Hardware is placed with millimeter-level precision.
-
Lower radiation exposure: Advanced imaging reduces the need for multiple X-rays.
Conditions Treated with Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery
This advanced technology can be used to treat many spinal conditions, including:
-
Herniated discs
-
Spinal stenosis
-
Degenerative disc disease
-
Spondylolisthesis
-
Scoliosis and spinal deformities
-
Spinal fractures
