Computer-assisted navigation for surgery is not new.
Navigation systems in orthopedics have been helping surgeons visualize the right locations for bone cuts and implant placement for decades.
However, there are challenges with traditional navigation systems, including line-of-sight obstruction, increased invasiveness, and issues with optical tracking. Registering anatomic landmarks before each case can also add time to hip and knee cases.
To overcome these problems and more, Dr. Morteza Meftah and Jon Greenwald founded Caira Surgical to develop radar-based tracking for surgical navigation.
