Spine (Below) Currently, Physicians see this: (MRI)
- MRI is great for seeing and diagnosing nerves, but very poor for bone
- In spine surgery, surgeons are cutting bone, but never see it well
How much could procedural outcomes improve if surgeons could diagnose, plan, and validate intraoperatively using Epica Imaging?
Surgeons are limited to ‘seeing’ tactilely with instruments and with limited bone information from low-res MRI
With Epica Imaging, Physicians willhavethis:

HDVI CT (Volumetric imaging) allows accurate high-resolution measurements to diagnose and validate treatment surgical success. This view has never been seen by physicians, but is critical to successful treatment.
Note: This view is possible only with Epica’s volumetric imaging
