Bayhealth became the first health system in Delaware to offer state-of-the-art surgical technology with the implementation of the 7D Surgical FLASH™ Navigation System. The innovative technology serves as a fast, accurate and radiation-free surgical tool for safer spinal and cranial procedures performed by the Bayhealth Neurosurgery team.
“As the region’s healthcare leader, Bayhealth maintains a deeply held commitment to offering our patients the nation’s best healthcare close to home. As such, we are bringing innovative services such as 7D Surgical FLASH™ Navigation System to Delaware,” said Bayhealth Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Deborah Watson, FACHE, FACMPE. “This investment underscores that commitment by improving patient safety and bringing access to the highest quality of care to the people of Kent and Sussex Counties.”
The 7D Surgical FLASH Navigation System is the first and only platform that utilizes Machine-Vision Image Guided Surgery (MvIGS) technology. For the first time, neurosurgeons can guide their tools to the critical anatomy using sophisticated camera technology linked to a computer in the operating room. The underlying technology is similar to what is used in the latest self-driving automobiles. Unlike time-consuming conventional image guided surgery systems that depend on radiation during surgery, this new MvIGS technology can reduce time in the operating room for patients and eliminate unnecessary radiation exposure.
Neurosurgeons Dawn Tartaglione, DO, and Amit Goyal, MD, will utilize the 7D Surgical FLASH™ Navigation System at Bayhealth.
“As a neurosurgeon, we notice our patients are staying active later in life and they want to keep their spine function at a higher level for many more years. This 7D technology allows us to see in 3D and gives us more information when placing hardware in the spine,” said Bayhealth Medical Director of Neurosurgery Dawn Tartaglione, DO, FACOS. “Our patients have shorter recovery times and can get back to doing what they love.”
“I am proud to be able to offer my patients the very latest technology while eliminating unnecessary radiation to them and our operating room staff,” said Bayhealth Neurosurgeon Amit Goyal, MD. “It’s fast, accurate, safe and allows us to optimize patient outcomes.”
Bayhealth added the new technology to its roster of cutting-edge surgical tools, after being the first in the state to introduce the ExcelsiusGPS system in 2019.
