Spine Care with Next-level Precision
Caring for the spine requires a high level of precision. Our spine experts at Keck Medicine of USC offer the most advanced spine surgery options to treat your condition safely and with the greatest accuracy.
We offer advanced 3D image-guided spine surgery with the use of imaging and navigation tools. During image-guided spine surgery, we use intraoperative imaging tools to create a three-dimensional (3D) model of your spine. This model is then used by our surgical navigation tool to guide your surgeon during your procedure. The guidance system uses this 3D image to make sure that implants, such as screws, are placed in the spine with millimeter precision.
Our experts also offer robotic spine surgery. Robotic spine surgery technology is another guidance tool our spine surgeons use to improve accuracy during surgery.
Our surgeons use image-guided and robotic technology for many minimally invasive spine procedures. This means you benefit from smaller incisions, less pain, less scarring and faster recovery.
