Robotic Surgeries
Advanced surgical navigation software allows us to plan the surgery on a 3D model, refine it with data during the procedure, and personalize joint replacement for each patient and ensure proper sizing of implants. The robotic arm helps with precision bone preparation and placement of implants in the ideal position.
Computer-Navigated Surgeries
Computer navigation is the most accurate way to re-create the patient’s own anatomy. By using-advanced technology, Dr. Nelson can make sure your leg lengths are as accurate as possible after surgery and decrease other complications such as fracture and dislocation.
