Curve, a highly-advanced navigation system for information guided surgery, was unveiled for the first time in the Middle East at Arab Health 2012 in Dubai in the presence of Stefan Vilsmeier, president and CEO of Brainlab.
The unveiling ceremony took place at the Brainlab booth in the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Center.
Curve by Brainlab is the company’s latest high-tech command and control center for information guided surgery. It features next-generation image guidance software powering advanced 3D displays and hallmark Brainlab image enrichment.
Curve boasts advanced technology like ultra-fast image updating when tracking instruments and can drive collaboration, bringing surgeons closer to colleagues, both near and far.
Mobile wireless networking allows users to stream and record then push to linked workstations.
“Curve represents thousands of enhancements based on years of feedback from our customers. Incorporating user feedback has always been a priority for Brainlab and has helped to produce the ultimate surgical navigation experience,” reiterated Vilsmeier.
“We are helping to foster collaboration and potentially improving patient outcomes.”
Using a human-centered design approach, Curve challenges conventional surgical utility, incorporating great ergonomics, two game-changing, multi-directional touch terminals, digital HD and hi-fi.
Vilsmeier also said: “When we started developing Curve, we set ourselves the goal to overcome the barriers of traditional navigation in the operating room. Our new navigation platform connects the operating room to the outside world through various interfaces. Surgeons can share and enrich data or consult with other medical experts at any time. Image Guided Surgery is now becoming Information Guided Surgery.”
The new Brainlab operating system streamlines and simplifies launching software applications and displaying contents.
