Laser Spine Surgery VS Mazor Robotics Renaissance
Laser Spine Surgery is promoted to Birmingham, AL residents as an advancement in spine surgery. However, lasers are not actually used and the techniques are not often truly minimally invasive or new. Neurosurgical Associates, PC suggests a true advancement in minimally invasive spine surgery, the Renaissance Robotic Surgical Guidance System. Unlike “lasers”, the Renaissance Guidance System shows our surgeons a real time 3D image of your spine, allowing us to precisely and safely place spinal implants with the least invasive method possible. Laser spine surgery is fiction, the Mazor Robotics Renaissance is real and available today.
