A Revolution in Robotic Navigation
ExcelsiusGPS is the next revolution in robotic spine surgery from Globus Medical, and it's offered exclusively at Lovelace Medical Center.
ExcelsiusGPS is designed to improve accuracy and optimize patient care by using robotics and navigation. This combination of technology offers a less invasive option for spine surgery, a reduction in radiation exposure for both the patient and the surgeon and a faster recovery period.
Technology
Minimally invasive surgery combines your surgeon's understanding of anatomy with x-ray imaging to treat spine conditions using small incisions. A minimally invasive technique permits the surgeon to separate the muscles surrounding the spine rather than cut through them. The surgeon operates through small incisions along the spine.
It is important to understand that the decision to receive minimally invasive surgery is individualized to the patient and the patient's symptoms. It is important to discuss with your physician whether minimally invasive surgery is right for you.
