How surgical robotic guidance works
The cutting-edge Mazor X Stealth Spine Robot at Valley View enables providers to create an individualized 3D surgical plan for patients before stepping into the operating room. During the procedure, the Mazor X automated robotic arm holds key surgical instrumentation in place. Robotic guidance then helps providers execute the custom surgical plan with exceptional precision through micro incisions.
Like other robotic-assisted technologies, Mazor X™ enhances the surgeon’s human skills to deliver superior precision – all while the surgeon retains full control of the procedure.
