Computer-Assisted Technologies in Arthroplasty Navigating Your Way Today

>> Computer-assisted technologies that are used in arthroplasty include navigation, image-derived instrumentation (IDI), and robotics. >> Computer-assisted navigation improves accuracy and allows for real-time assessment of component positioning and soft-tissue tension. >> It is not clear whether the implementation of these technologies improves the clinical outcome of surgery. >> High cost and time demands have prevented the global implementation of computer-assisted technologies.
