Augmedics completes second successful cadaver study with the xvision-spine (XVS) AR surgical navigation system (press release)
Augmedics, a developer of an augmented-reality (AR) surgical navigation system, has successfully completed its second cadaver study using its xvision-spine system (XVS) with surgeons from Johns Hopkins Hospital, as well as two surgeons from hospitals in Israel. During the study, the surgeons placed 120 pedicle screws in five separate cadavers with screw placement accuracy of 96.7 percent when employing the combined Heary-Gertzbein grading scheme.

Augmedics’ xvision-spine system (XVS) is an AR surgical navigation system designed to give surgeons “X-ray vision” during complex procedures. With XVS, surgeons can see and navigate inside a patient’s body through skin and tissue, for easier, faster and safer surgeries. The XVS system comprises a transparent near-eye-display headset and has all elements of traditional navigation systems. It accurately determines the position of surgical tools, in real-time, and superimposes them on patient’s CT data. The navigation data is then projected onto the surgeons’ retina using the transparent...
