The 7D Surgical MvIGS flagship has promised to deliver more surgical innovations in the future to enhance the quality of spinal surgeries to a larger extent.
Image guided surgical systems were originally designed and created by doctors and medical technicians to assist surgeons
Image-guided surgical systems are rapidly developing and having a powerful influence in the medical field. The computer has become a valuable assistant to the physician, and surgeries in the future are likely to become shorter, less invasive, less risky and more successful than has been the case in the past.
For brain tumor patients who are resistant to chemotherapy, radiation and existing treatment options, surgery are central to survival.
Back pain is one of our modern world’s biggest health enemies. About 85% of working people are expected to suffer from this in their lifetimes. And while
Technology now gives us the ability to see inside a person’s body in accurate, third-dimensional detail.
As technology advances and brings in more and more revolutions in different fields, so do people’s unfamiliarity with them, which raises questions, and even a little bit of fear. Fear is always alleviated with a bit of knowledge, however. The most incredible and, for some, most mysterious of technological revolutions that have come along is that of image-guided surgery. The truth of the matter is that most people don’t even know what image-guided surgery is, but few would. Those who do not know what it is aren’t sure if it is safe to have this aid. So, what are image-guided surgery systems and are they safe to use?
Gunshot injury is one the most frequent causes of penetrating brain injury. Mortality rates for surviving such a gunshot injury are painting a dark picture: between 52 and 95% do not survive the surgical treatment. Unfortunately, cases of cranio-cerebral gunshot injuries are now more and more frequent on surgeons’ operating tables from all around the world.
Technological advances in healthcare have vastly improved patient care and surgery outcomes over the past 30 years. In effect, these advances are improving our quality of life. In particular, Image-Guided Surgery Systems (IGS) have become the official standard of healthcare over the past 10 years.

Over the last 10 to 20 years, image-guided surgery systems or computer guided surgery, have become the standard of care in the management of various illnesses and disorders. Examples include cranial, otorhinolaryngological, spinal, orthopaedic, neurological, and cardiovascular specialities.
Spine surgeries using image guidance navigation has tremendous advantages to the patients, operating room staff, and the surgeons.
Image Guided Surgery (IGS) is the use of tracked surgical instruments. These instruments will vary according to what is being surgically accomplished and where in the body the surgery is taking place. Imagery being recorded prior to surgery and or actively during surgery will assist in making this process successful. The use of electromagnetic , cameras and ultrasonic are used in the IGS surgery system. The system helps to guide the surgeons into a safer and less intrusive surgery, where scars are barely visible or not visible at all.
Technology has been gradually advancing and developing over the years past, especially when it comes to medicine. According to researchers, the Machine-vision Image-Guided Surgery (MvIGS) system provides surgical guidance by using an optical non-ionizing light to obtain a three-dimensional scan of patients during surgery.
The use of live images for investigative and diagnostic purposes first became available in the mid-1980s. The next logical step was the use of those
On the forefront of development for new technologies in cranial and spinal navigation, is the MvIGS technology developed by 7D Surgical.
In recent years, spine and cranial navigation has come into prominence as the latest technological innovation in the medical field. In particular, Image Guided Surgery (IGS) systems have recently allowed surgeons to perform radiation-free spinal and cranial navigation, efficiently and cost effectively.
For the past two decades, surgeons have implemented various surgery methods and technologies to aid safe and successful procedures on patients. However, in recent times, computer-based solutions have augmented the medical field – thanks to the advancement in technology. One notable application that plays an essential role in several surgical operations is Image-Guided Surgery (IGS). This advanced navigational system makes it easy for surgeons to perform complex, but less invasive operations, including the removal of malignant tumours. Gone are those days when it was impossible to operate on these cancerous tumours due to their sheer size and accessibility.
The use of technology has sought to bring out various industrial growth advancements, maximizing efficiency and precision.
