neuro mate® is an image-guided, computer-controlled, 5-axis articulated arm. It is intended for use in an operating room to position and orientate as prescribed by the surgeon a guide into which the surgeon can manually insert standard stereotactic instruments. neuro mate® provides the surgeon with precise, reliable, and reproducible mechanical assistance in order to guide instruments during surgical interventions. neuro mate® could be considered as a motorised stereotactic frame controlled by interactive PC-based imaging software which provides three-dimensional images of the anatomical structures of the brain as well as the target points.The neuro mate® is a configurable medical device that is composed of a mobile support with or without a spacer, an arm, a planning trolley (with a planning station and a planning software), a remote control and cables.
An assembly of devices that typically consists of a rigid frame, positioning and alignment components, workstation, and a calibrated guide mechanism for precisely positioning probes, other instruments, or implantable devices during neurosurgery. The system may include computerized functions to store diagnostic images used for image-guided surgery.
