Hub
The interactive portal
An interactive platform providing surgical plannings and analytics allowing surgeons to make a more informed decisions.
Lab
The biomedical engineer team
UNiD™ ASI Lab is our team of spine experts who provide a suite of services that allow surgeons to analyze and plan, with the goal of improving patient outcomes.
Tek
The patient-specific implants range
A suite of technologies that provides patient-specific implants that act as an intraoperative tool to confirm that the plan has been achieved.
The Hub – A smooth platform, always available
The Hub is a proprietary planning software and interactive platform between UNiD™ ASI Lab biomedical engineers and surgeons.
The platform facilitates surgical plan simulations, clinical and surgical workflows, outcome reports, and communications with the UNiD™ ASI Lab biomedical engineers.
Accessible via desktop, or on mobile devices.
- Human expertise and predictive modeling as a support in planning your cases
- Patient-specific pre-bent rod to ensure execution is matching your plan
- Improved clinical outcomes thanks to optimal sagittal alignment and surgical execution
“UNiD™ ASI allows surgeons to better understand their patient’s alignment before surgery, customize a surgical plan, and use a patient-specific rod, industrially bent in the optimal plane to help ensure the goals of the surgery are achieved.”
Dr. Nicolas Plais
Hospital Universitario San Cecilio
Granada, Spain

The Lab – Exchange with your extended team
The UNiD™ ASI Lab has several missions: measurement of spinopelvic parameters; run predictive modeling; plan and simulate cases; review literature; perform post-op analysis; and exchange case examples with surgeons.

The Tek – A patient-specific pre-bent rod
Discover how the UNiD™ ASI patient-specific rods are manufactured and sent to you.
“It makes no sense that we do the perfect pre-op planning and surgical strategy, and during surgery we just bend the rod as we think it should be bent – this is not right.”
Prof. Erik Van de Kelft
Sint-Niklaas Moerland
Antwerpen, Belgium
“With UNiD™ ASI rods you can have a more accurate rod shape, with an ideal lordosis repartition to avoid putting your patient backwards.”
Prof. Emmanuelle Ferrero
Georges Pompidou European Hospital
Paris, France
