Computer Navigation

Computer assisted spine surgery is a cutting edge technology which has improved the safety and accuracy of spine procedures. This technology is available in only a few centres worldwide Mallika Spine Centre is one of the pioneers in the country to adopt this technique with an aim to bring the latest in technology to patients. The institute has been performing such surgeries in complex spine disorders since 2017. These navigation systems are often very helpful in revision surgeries and in complex deformities.

Computer Navigation is a new innovative technology in spine surgeries that improves the intra-operative accuracy. It allows virtually any surgical instrument to be tracked in reference to the displayed anatomy in real time. This can be particularly helpful when a spine surgeon places an instrument or implant into unexposed or partially exposed spinal structures that may not be directly visible, such as the pedicle or vertebral body.

Neuro Monitoring

This technique was invented in Japan in the 1970s. Electrical stimulation was provoked on the dorsal spinal cord from an epidural electrode.Intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring (IONM) is a valuable technique for assessing the nervous system. It replaces the neurologic examination when the patient is under general anesthesia and cannot cooperate with a face-to-face examination.

At our centre, we mitigate the risk of neurological deficit with continuous intra operative neuromonitoring during surgery. Thereby achieving surgical goals and preserving quality of life post-surgery.The spinal cord evoked potentials (SCEP) correspond to summation of neural activities originating from the ascending and descending tracts and neurons near the recording electrode.The recorded potentials are very vigorous and most likely represent the combined activity of the tracts of the spinal cord, such as dorsal columns, the corticospinal tracts and others.
