7D SURGICAL INC. HONOURED
Envision 3D: Image Guidance System, co-invented by Victor Yang, was recognized as one of nine best new spine care technologies for 2015. Envision 3D is an all optical intraoperative 3D image-guided surgical navigation system which does NOT have X-ray radiation. The image-guided surgical technology incorporates the form factor and function of the operating room surgical light and shines a special pattern onto the exposed patient anatomy. While this pattern is not visible to the operating room staff it is detectable by Envision 3D device which then creates a highly accurate and detailed 3-dimensional surface. For the first time, surgeons can have real time 2D or 3D visualizations of the patient's anatomy overlaid with the spatial positioning of the surgical tools.
