SMITH & NEPHEW PLC Smith+Nephew (LSE: SN, NYSE: SNN), the global medical technology company, today announces the launch of its new CORIOGRAPH Pre-Operative Planning and Modeling Services, providing an unparalleled, personalized solution for surgeons and patients across partial and total knee arthroplasty procedures.
It is exclusively for use with the CORI Surgical System - the only orthopaedic robotic-assisted system to offer either intraoperative image-free or image-based registration, enabling the surgeon to choose whether or not to perform a pre-operative MRI scan.
Delivering solutions for differing patient types coupled with planning and execution tools is essential to personalizing surgery. Robotic-assisted surgery can improve accuracy and reproducibility, and may lead to better patient outcomes compared to conventional techniques.1-3
