In the Neuroradiology Department of the the University of Magdeburg Prof. Martin Skalej uses iGuide CAPPA for various spinal needle procedures, such as spinal radio frequency ablations, disco graphies and kyphoplasties.

“iGuide CAPPA allows for precise placement of electrodes or biopsy devices even in regions that are difficult to evaluate fluoroscopically or where critical anatomic structures not visible on fluoroscopy must be evaded” 


“Progression of the needles is excellently depicted by the tracking system and anatomic detail is provided by syngo DynaCT”


“No further imaging is necessary during the intervention, which reduces X-ray exposure of the examiners compared to interventions performed under CT fluoroscopy guidance.”
