Spineology to Unveil New Threshold(TM) Minimally Invasive Pedicular Fixation System at NASS
ST. PAUL, Minn.--(Healthcare Sales & Marketing Network)-- Spineology Inc., the innovator in anatomy-conserving spine surgery, announced today that it will unveil its new Threshold™ pedicular fixation system at the North American Spine Society’s 2011 Annual Conference in early November.The Threshold system is designed to accommodate mini-open and percutaneous implantation of screws and rods for the treatment of painful spinal conditions. The system uses simple “over-the-wire” techniques for placement of the screws and has numerous unique instruments for delivery of the rods and set screws.
“Our goal in developing the Threshold System was to make an MIS system that is as user friendly as possible,” said Karen Roche, Vice President of R&D for Spineology.
“Pedicular fixation systems are a fundamental technology in the treatment of spinal pathologies,” said John Booth, CEO for Spineology. “The issue with many of the existing systems is the invasiveness associated with their implantation. The Threshold system follows Spineology’s anatomy conserving design philosophy and will be a great addition to our product line.”
