It consists of a field generator, multiple field sensors, a processing computer, and matched instruments. Under novel EMN guidance systems, surgeons can obtain a 3D anatomical structure of the spine or multiplanar imaging reconstruction, and surgical instruments can be tracked in real-time for 3D space.
The electromagnetic tracking surgical navigation system can integrate intraoperative fluoroscopy with preoperative CT-based data to achieve intraoperative virtual 3D visualization in real-time.
Report on AR, MR & VR In Spine Navigation
Teikyo University Okinaga Research Institute of Japan has combined AR, VR, or MR with robotic-assisted surgery. This helps in alleviating surgeon fatigue. Also, it holds the potential to increase the precision of spinal realignment and stabilization. Increasing precision and consistency has become a primary objective of this technology in this context to reduce surgical time, alleviate the physical burden on the surgeon.
Robotic Spine Surgery
The Bio-Medico University of Rome has worked in innovation in robotic spine surgery. Robotic spine surgery comprehends 3 major categories:
- Telesurgical robotic systems,
- Robotic-assisted navigation (RAN), and
- Virtual augmented reality (AR) systems, including AR and virtual reality.
A robotic assistant is composed of an arm and a navigation camera with a floor-flexible base that does not need to be attached to the patient. It is equipped with a stereoscopic camera to track patient movements and readjust robot position in real-time, providing an accurate and safe pedicle screw placement and avoiding the risk of neurological injuries

Most of the joimax® instruments are navigated with the highest accuracy through various Intracs® em sensors. As a result, the procedure can be carried out without constant X-ray control. Intervention time and radiation exposure are drastically reduced.
Brainlab technology powers treatments in radiosurgery and radiotherapy as well as numerous surgical fields including neurosurgery, orthopedic, ENT, CMF, spine, and trauma. Brainlab Spinal Navigation delivers accurate pedicle screw placement and enables drastic reduction of X-Ray exposure.
Report on Future Directions of Spine Navigation
Accurately plan incisions and trajectories with any instrument. It supports implant placement especially in anatomically critical areas Guides in the posterior incision and approaches for minimally invasive surgeries. It also reduces X-Ray exposure to the surgical team and patients. Plan incisions and trajectories at skin level. Visualize instruments on 2D images, 3D scans, MR or CT scans in real-time
Transformative Companies
Proprio Vision founded in 2016 is a Seattle, WA(US) based start-up, developing a system for real-time immersive video and mediated reality interaction. We are using cutting-edge algorithms and custom hardware to enhance human capabilities in high-precision activities such as brain or spine surgery.
Augmedics founded in 2014, is in Arlington Heights, IL(US) based startup which develops xvision™ – an Augmented-Reality Head-Mounted Display for spine surgery. Xvision allows surgeons to see the patient’s anatomy through skin and tissue as if they had “X-Ray Vision”. Based on Augmedics’ patented technology, the xvision system can project the patient’s anatomy, in real-time, directly onto the surgeon’s retina, with surgical precision and outstanding depth perception.

Report on Global Market Trends For Spine Navigation
Electromagnetic Navigation Report reveals detailed information on the market drivers and underlying factors.
Augmented Reality Receives Global Attention
With the growth of navigation, innovation is paramount to improve safety and efficiency. Improved monitors for visualization, optimized operating suites for navigation, smaller registration trackers are all areas that are receiving current attention. optimizing navigation through innovation in platforms.
Based on our preliminary research findings, it is likely that platforms will continue to innovate to optimize the use of navigation. Eg. Brainlab’s Airo Mobile v augmented reality (AR/VR).
Innovation that will continue to be implemented is the use of augmented reality headsets with navigation in real-time. These headsets are directly overlaid on the patient, instead of a screen. In our opinion, once this technology becomes more end-user friendly its implementation will increase significantly. E.g. ClarifEye Augmented Reality Surgical Navigation VCO-registration to improve accuracy.
CT-MRI (or other combination) co-registration is another feature that can enhance Computer-Assisted Navigation application in patients presenting with soft tissue masses without bony involvement.
Robotic Assisted Surgery- The Future Technology
It is another current expansion opportunity for navigation, though its cost may be prohibitive in some situations. E.g. MAZOR X STEALTH EDITION.
