NASS News: joimax Introduces Intracs em Electromagnetic Navigation System

joimax, the Germany-based market leader of technologies and training methods for full-endoscopic spinal surgery, introduces another minimally invasive device, Intracs ^em Electromagnetic Navigation System, at two global spine events: EUROSPINE Barcelona, the Spine Society of Europe’s annual conference and expo (September 19-21), and NASS 2018, the North American Spine Society premier meeting in Los Angeles (September 24-28).
 
“With developments such as Intracs ^em, we are steadily positioning ourselves as true innovators in this space,” states Wolfgang Ries, Founder and CEO of joimax. “And we further strengthen our leading role in endoscopic spinal surgery,” he added.
 
Intracs ^em Electromagnetic Navigation System
Intracs ^em relies on electromagnetic tracking and is specifically designed for simple and safe access to any spinal target. For exceptional accuracy, the instruments are vector-guided directly at the tip; therefore, bending of needles or other pliant instruments will not affect the navigation’s precision. The new smart and user-friendly system can serve as a stand-alone device, or be completely integrated with the joimax Endoscopic Tower. It is the only system on the market which allows for simultaneous navigation of multiple instruments such as needles, guiding rods, reamers, and endoscopes; developed by joimax.
 
The full European product launch is scheduled for Q4 2018. The global launch, including the United States, will be rolled out in the beginning of 2019.
