First adult spine surgery using groundbreaking nView s1 imaging and navigation technology announced
Salt Lake City, UT – April 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — nView medical, a leader in surgical imaging technologies, proudly announces the successful first use of its nView s1 imaging and navigation system in adult spine surgery. The procedure was performed at the prestigious Semmes-Murphey Clinic in Memphis, TN, by pioneer Kevin T. Foley, M.D. This significant milestone demonstrates the versatility and precision of the nView s1 in extending from pediatric to adult surgeries, particularly in minimally invasive procedures. The nView s1 system is differentiated by its rapid 3D imaging and efficient navigation as well as its small footprint, making it an ideal solution for surgical spine applications in an Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC). Dr. Foley, assisted by spine fellow Alex Dru, used the nView s1 technology to accurately place spinal implants during an outpatient minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion performed at the Semmes-Murphey ASC. The combination of rapid, low-dose, advanced imaging, streamlined navigation, and seamless workflow, allow the nView system to support procedures in the ASC setting, where both speed and safety are critical.
