ARTIS pheno.Cutting-edge robotic imaging for multiple surgical disciplines

Today’s surgery departments face complex challenges. Health economic demands, advances in medicine and research, and intense competition often prompt investments in minimally invasive operating techniques and a supporting Hybrid OR. Over a thousand installations worldwide show that ARTIS pheno can be a critical success factor in this endeavor.

Intraoperative 3D verification of electrode placement during deep brain stimulation procedure

Ready for deep brain stimulation

ARTIS pheno allows surgeons to focus on optimal electrode placement. The system delivers intra-operative imaging to support targeting of the brain structures, stereotactic navigation, as well as assessment of electrode placement – eliminating the need for transporting the patient to the radiology department for a postoperative CT scan.
