Cusa Excel® + Ultrasonic Aspirator

The CUSA EXcel+ system supports a broad selection of handpieces and surgical tips, allowing the surgeon to select the most appropriate combination based on the surgical procedure. The user-friendly console, color coded tubing, and tubing paths enable easy system set-up. The CUSA EXcel+ system offers a simple user interface, the widest variety of handpieces and tip combinations, and advanced features that make it the most powerful ultrasonic tissue ablation system available.

Cusa NXT™ Ultrasonic Aspirator

The CUSA NXT is the newest member of the CUSA® family. The CUSA NXT system features revolutionary NXT Digital ArchitectureTM and a touch-screen user interface.
The CUSA NXT supports the current selection of the CUSA Selector handpieces.
When used with the CUSA Selector MRI handpieces, the system is fully compatible for use in suites with intraoperative MRI equipment.

The CUSA NXT is a compact and portable unit. The Console can be connected to the wall suction in the operating room, or used with the CUSA NXT Service Module for optimized aspiration performance.

Cusa Selector® Ultrasonic Aspirator

The CUSA Selector Console is the power source for the CUSA Selector handpieces and provides aspiration and irrigation control. The latter is via an integral peristaltic pump, able to deliver a range of flow rates from 1 – 50 ml/min.

The CUSA Selector Service Module provides a source of aspiration and waste collection for the CUSA Selector Console. Alternatively, the CUSA Selector Console can be connected directly to the suction/ waste source within the operating room.

An MRI safe version of the CUSA Selector Console is available for use in intraoperative MRI suites.

COMPASS INTERNATIONAL

TracPlus™ Image Guided Surgery (IGS) System (Neuro Navigation)

The TracPlus™ Image Guided Surgery (IGS) System was the first portable frameless stereotactic system for neurosurgical procedures. COMPASS International engineered away unnecessary and expensive hardware to shrink system size and cost while keeping the functionality of much more expensive systems. Computing power was concentrated into a UNIX laptop and compact surgical image processor.

Now through ongoing engineering, the latest TracPlus™ system provides capabilities for biopsies, bone flap placements, craniotomies, and other procedures. Optional ENT capabilities are also available.

The latest software includes enhanced selection of reference points, tumor cross section, biopsy planning, image correlation, surgeon preferences, interactive selection of instrumentation, metal detection and more.

With the new Intellitrak feature, the system now detects if there is any metal in the field, which helps provide better accuracy.

KINAMED

NeuroPro®

With each component carefully engineered for flawless performance and efficient use in the OR, the NeuroPro® System makes flap closure a pleasure instead of a chore. Designed specifically for neurosurgical applications, the NeuroPro® System addresses all your rigid fixation requirements, including cranioplasty and skull base applications, in a single compact modular tray. This coupled with the documented performance of titanium plate and screw fixation for long-term flap stability, enables you to provide the best fixation option for your patients. The unique three level autoclave tray contains everything needed for all neurosurgical rigid fixation procedures. A complete selection of titanium plates, panels and screws is carefully organized and labeled for maximum efficiency and ease of use in the OR. All necessary drill bits and instruments are also organized in the tray. An asymmetric burr hole cover design allows flexibility in positioning of the plate such that screws can be placed away from the edge of craniotomy cuts. At least two screws can always be placed in the flap — even with closely spaced cuts.

TECRES

Mendec Cranio®

Mendec Cranio® is an acrilic resin with special handling properties for excellent results in the recostruction of small cranial defects. The manual application is easy thanks to the perfect malleability that makes it the best addendum to the cranioplasty surgery.

OMT®

Neuro Patties

The Spetzler and OMT Neuro Patties™ offer exceptional pliability, compliance and a singular design not found in existing neurosurgical Sponges or Cottonoids. The tapered shape conforms easily to the surgical site while contouring to most styles of brain spatulas.
Extremely thin rayon in a single layer construction offers optimal visibility and a very high absorption rate. A unique variety of sizes suits all of your surgical needs. The different sizes help the surgeon achieve superior results and accommodate to specific anatomical structures for all surgical needs.
