The book introduces the using of navigation assisted robotic system in orthopedic surgery. The system is based on real-time 3D navigation. In the first part, it covers spine surgery, which includes pedicle screw fixation on cervical, thoracic, lumbar spine, dens screw fixation, Margerl screw fixation, PVP, PKP, and MED. The second part is about trauma surgery, which covers screw fixation in pelvis fracture and acetabulum fracture.
This book is mainly written for spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, and traumatic orthopedic surgeons.

Features
• Introduces three major used robotic machine
• Discusses how to improve alignment of implant with bone and increase the contact area between implant and bone
• Written by spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, and traumatic orthopaedic surgeons
