The IOPS (Intra-Operative Positioning System) is intended for the evaluation of vascular anatomy as captured using 3D modeling from previously acquired scan data. It is intended for real-time tip positioning and navigation using sensor-equipped, compatible catheters and guidewires used in endovascular interventions in the descending aorta. After the patient is placed on the OR table, a cone beam CT (CBCT) is acquired using fluoroscopy with a flat panel detector (FPD). The scan is uploaded to the hospital’s PACS. The CBCT is registered to the initial CT using the IOPS software and the 3D renderings. The system is indicated for use as an adjunct to fluoroscopy. The IOPS does not make a diagnosis.
An assembly of devices intended to provide a physician with an electromagnetic (EM) tool for image registration and/or tracking of manual surgical instruments with respect to pre-acquired images (e.g., CT/MRI scan) or real-time data [e.g., ultrasound (US)] during surgery. It consists of a workstation with controls/display, a line-powered EM field generator, a tracking unit, instruments and trackers with sensors/spatial markers, and adhesive skin markers. It is used for multiple surgical procedures (e.g., ethmoidectomy, tumour resection, fibroid ablation, biopsy, drilling, vascular access) in various fields [e.g., ENT, craniomaxillofacial (CMF), laparoscopic, or orthopaedic surgery].
