Advanced Technology for Spine Pain Treatment
With CHRISTUS, you will receive treatment for spine pain using the latest innovations in spine surgery to ensure safer, less invasive procedures with better outcomes. Our advanced technology helps reduce surgical risks, minimize pain, and promote faster recovery—so you can get back to the life you love.
Receive treatment through a patient-focused approach to spine care, prioritizing safety, precision, and faster healing through the most advanced surgical techniques.
Real-Time Imaging and Surgical Precision
- Medtronic O-arm: Provides high-resolution 2D and 3D imaging during surgery, giving surgeons a real-time, detailed view of the spine for improved accuracy and safety.
- StealthStation Navigation System: Offers computer-guided precision, allowing surgeons to visualize the spine in real time and perform complex procedures with greater accuracy.
Minimally Invasive Techniques for Faster Recovery
- Joimax Endoscopes and Tubular Retractors: Allow for ultra-minimally invasive procedures, reducing incision size, tissue disruption, and recovery time.
- Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion (ALIF, XLIF, OLIF): Stabilizes the spine with smaller incisions and less muscle disruption, leading to reduced post-surgical pain and faster healing.
- Single-Position Surgery (Prone XLIF): Streamlines the procedure, minimizing time in surgery while optimizing spinal alignment and stability for improved outcomes.
Precision Tools for Safer Surgery
- Misonix Ultrasonic Precision Tools: Enable targeted nerve decompression while preserving surrounding tissue, reducing pain, and promoting a smoother recovery.
