Amazing technological advances in spine surgery have occurred over the past few years. From the introduction of minimally invasive spine techniques to image guided surgery, Dr. Goldstein has been at the forefront of innovation.
Dr. Goldstein is now performing spine surgery with the first and only Globus ExcelsiusGPS™ robot in New York City. The robot allows surgery to be performed with enhanced precision and accuracy through a minimally invasive approach. The robot can improve patient safety and shorten recovery time. Robotic spine surgery may be an option for you.
This robot is the next revolution in robotic spine surgery from Globus Medical, a developer of spinal and orthopedic implants and surgical instruments for patients with spine disorders. ExcelsiusGPS™ is designed to improve accuracy and optimize patient care by using robotics and navigation, much like a GPS in your car.
On the day of surgery medical images are taken and imported into ExcelsiusGPS™. The surgeon uses these images to determine the size and placement of implants and creates a patient plan based on your anatomy. This is used to guide the rigid robotic arm to a specific region of your spine, similar to a planned route or pathway on a GPS. Dr. Goldstein then uses this pathway or route to accurately place the implants using instruments.
Throughout the procedure, the surgical instruments and implants are continuously displayed on the screen or the surgeon and staff to monitor. This display allows the surgeon to view live feedback during your procedure for more precise implant placement.
Dr. Goldstein has said “My practice of medicine has always been committed to providing the highest quality of care for our patients and using state-of-the-technology once its safety and efficacy has been demonstrated I'm looking forward to utilizing the new options that this robotic system brings to the area of minimally invasive spine surgery, robotics, and navigation.”.
See Dr. Goldstein's interview with Orthopedics Weekly where he discusses the latest innovations in robotic surgery along with the advantages of the ExcelsiusGPS™ system.
