Build an advanced surgical navigation system using JADAK’s industry-leading machine vision cameras for greater precision during complex procedures to support improved patient outcomes. Track surgical instruments more accurately and get access to real-time, high-resolution images via FPGA (field programmable gate array) technology. Our surgical navigation technologies are fully customizable for seamless integration with specific surgical instruments for hyper-accurate tracking.
Advanced Surgical Navigation
Surgical navigation systems work similar to GPS systems, enabling surgeons to accurately track the precise position of their instruments during procedures. A surgical navigation system uses sophisticated software algorithms alongside machine vision technology, advanced sensors and real-time image processing to assist with planning and executing complex procedures. These surgical navigation technologies combine to support increased precision for more accurate procedures and better patient outcomes.
Common Surgical Navigation Challenges
- Internal Visibility: Internal obstructions are one of the key factors creating challenges for surgical navigation.
- Image Quality: Surgical navigation accuracy can be impacted by the quality and resolution of real-time images, depending on the technology being used.
- Instrument Tracking Precision: It can be difficult to keep track of surgical instruments during complex procedures without the use of advanced surgical navigation technologies.
