Lukas Bobinski, MD, PhD
Umeå University Hospital, Sweden
In the third presentation of our Lunch Symposium at the 38th CSRS-ES congress, Dr. Lukas Bobinski described how he uses navigation on complex cervical spine surgeries to increase the accuracy of the implant placement.
Dr. Bobinski describes how navigation can be useful in cases like minimally invasive cervical procedures and complex revision cases with no landmarks, sharing some tips & tricks on how he performs those cases.
Use of AI and patient-specific implants to optimize cervical spine surgery outcomes
Lee Tan, MD
UCSF Medical Center, USA
On the second presentation of Medtronic’s Lunch Symposium at the 2023 CSRS-ES annual meeting, Dr. Lee Tan shared his experience with the use of AI and patient-specific implants in spine, including cervical.
Dr. Tan provides details on cervical parameters relevant to cervical procedures and how he incorporates these in his practice with the use of UNiD™ ASI for his cervical cases.
