CONTACT: Joe McGrath (763) 505-2634 joseph.mcgrath@ FACT SHEET ––––– ® The StealthStation Treatment Guidance System The StealthStation® treatment guidance system, from Medtronic Surgical Navigation Technologies (SNT), is the most accepted image-guided surgery system in the world, with more than 650 of the systems currently in use around the world (as of July 2001). The StealthStation® treatment guidance system has revolutionized neurosurgery because it provides surgeons with a way to navigate through the body using 3D images as their guide. This next-generation technology takes images from a variety of traditional imaging sources — X-ray, computerized tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound — then transforms them into precise 3D images. Those images can be changed, manipulated and merged to provide the exact view the surgeon needs — both before the operation takes place as well as in the operating room. The precision provided by the StealthStation® system allows surgeons to focus on the exact location they need to reach during surgery, without compromising nearby muscle, tissue, nerves or blood vessels. ® ® The StealthStation TREON™ The StealthStation ION™ The StealthStation® The StealthStation® TREON™ treatment ION™ fluoroscopic guidance system is the navigation system is newest innovation in primarily used for
