Electromagnetic Navigation System
Intuitive and safe
Pinpointed and monitored to every spinal target
Intracs® em – the smart navigation system is based on the latest electromagnetic tracking technology. By navigating at the tip of compatible instruments, it is particularly suitable for safe and gentle access to any target of the spine.
- Intracs® em Navigation System can be integrated in the joimax® Endoscopic Tower or used as a stand-alone solution.
- Existing installations can be easily upgraded.
- The high-quality medical grade PC with 24“ touch display is completely sealed and, therefore, easy to clean and disinfect.
- The Intracs® em Field Generator is mounted onto the specially designed Intracs® em Mounting Arm.
- Most of the joimax® instruments are navigated with highest accuracy through various Intracs® em sensors. As a result, the procedure can be carried out without constant X-ray control. Intervention time and radiation exposure are drastically reduced.
Approved and certified
To ensure the highest safety standards, our products are tested and certified according to the latest standards. The electromagnetic navigation system for endoscopic minimally invasive spine surgery Intracs® em is certified according to the applicable standards of the IEC 60601 series and additionally according to the requirements for the USA and Canada. The standards of the 60601 series cover the requirements for the electrical and mechanical safety of medical devices.
Intracs® em Field Generator
The field generator emits a low-intensity electromagnetic field and defines the tracking volume. The special holding arm ensures stability.
Panel PC
The panel PC with integrated touch screen enables the control of the system as well as the display of the medical image data and the relative instrument position.
Intracs® em Sensors
Sensor Wire (Nitinol tube) for needle, guiding rods, and endoscope navigation
Instrument Navigation
directly at the tip
Sensor clip
The sensor clip is a clamp with a fixation screw, which can be attached to compatible joimax® instruments. It enables the detection of the position within the tracking field.
Patient Mapper
The patient mappers have radiolucent housings with integrated radiographic marker spheres. They are inserted into the beam path while acquiring the X-ray images. The Intracs® em Navigation System enables an automatic registration of the X-ray images within the tracking volume.
Patient Tracker + Registration Tool
The position of the patient can be determined at any time via the Patient Tracker. In addition, the Patient Tracker allows selection and registration of instruments within the sterile environment.
Compatible instruments
All instruments that are typically used in endoscopic joimax® methods can be navigated. The two sensors (sensor wire and sensor clip) allow for navigating of several instruments at the same time.
