Advancing Spinal Surgery with New Technology

UPMC Sports Surgery Clinic is thrilled to announce its acquisition of ExcelsiusGPS®, marking a significant step forward in the field of Robotic Assisted Spinal Surgery. This cutting-edge technology is specifically designed to enhance safety and accuracy in the operating room, offering improved visualization of patient anatomy during surgical procedures to optimize treatment outcomes.

One of the key features of the ExcelsiusGPS® system is its ability to streamline the surgical workflow while significantly reducing radiation exposure for both surgeons and their staff. This revolutionary robotic navigation platform is the first of its kind in the world to integrate a rigid robotic arm with comprehensive navigation capabilities, ensuring precise trajectory alignment during spine surgeries.

Fiona Roche, General Manager of UPMC Sports Surgery Clinic, expressed her enthusiasm about the new technology, stating,

“At UPMC Sports Surgery Clinic, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care for our patients and staff. This new technology enables our spinal surgeons and neurosurgeons to plan and execute minimally invasive procedures with enhanced precision, ultimately optimizing patient care.

UPMC SSC places a strong emphasis on being a leading innovator in Irish Orthopaedics, and the integration of this advanced technology will further elevate the quality of care we deliver to our patients.”

With the addition of ExcelsiusGPS®, UPMC Sports Surgery Clinic is poised to lead the way in robotic-assisted spinal surgery, ensuring patients receive the safest, most effective care possible.
