2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Jonathan Lewin,
Director of The Center for Musculoskeletal Disorders (CMD) based in
Englewood, New Jersey, has become
the first surgeon in the state to use the PathKeeper Surgical
Spinal Navigation System.
Dr. Lewin is currently a Diplomate of the American Board of
Orthopedic Surgery and is the Director

and Artificial Intelligence, empowering surgeons with sub
millimetric accuracy for registration and tool tracking.
Developed by leading innovators in medical optics, the system
integrates state-of-the-art navigation capabilities with real-time
imaging, allowing surgeons to navigate complex spinal anatomy with
unprecedented accuracy, and eliminates radiation in the operating
room.
Commenting on this achievement, Dr. Lewin expressed his
enthusiasm for the potential impact of the Pathkeeper system on
spinal surgery: "I am thrilled to have the opportunity to pioneer
the use of Pathkeeper in New
Jersey. This innovative technology opens new doors for
precision and safety in spinal procedures, without radiation,
ultimately enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life."

technology in the surgical landscape, positioning state at the art
optics and machine learning to eliminate radiation and improve
accuracy for spine surgical intervention.
