Description

The device is a minimally-invasive, incision-free, and motion-preserving alternative to current highly-invasive spinal fusion procedures. The procedure involves injecting patented Sonosensitive particles into the degenerated intervertebral disc and activating them with external ultrasound to perform a controlled nucleotomy. A hydrogel is then injected to create a prosthetic nucleus pulposus for sustainable restoration. The entire procedure is designed to be performed on a day-case basis with a single 0.5mm puncture in the annulus fibrosus. OrthoSon's patented Passive Acoustic MappingTM procedure ensures real-time imaging for safety and control.
