Computer-assisted ortho surgery offers greater precision
 

Computer-assisted or computer-navigated hip and knee replacement surgery is a leading edge treatment.

Computer-assisted technology offers accuracy and precision for physicians performing hip and knee replacement surgery.

A three-dimensional image projected on a computer screen helps the surgeon map out the joint and obtain the greatest degree of accuracy when performing the operation. The image helps the surgeon in knowing where to position the instruments, what part of the joint to remove and where to insert the new joint.
