| The Hospital for Special Surgery CAS Center aims to develop and validate
surgical navigation and medical robotics in orthopedic surgery. HSS is
uniquely positioned to pioneer CAS technologies with the integration of
important assets which are exclusive to the hospital.
HSS is home to
clinical leaders from all fields of orthopedics, working with a
high clinical
volume in facilities that are equipped to perform all varieties of orthopedic
procedures. Our Biomechanics faculty is internationally recognized, and we
possess the ability to design implants and instrumentation "in-house". Since HSS also maintains strong relationships with implant companies, we are
in an
enviable position to facilitate and streamline the surgical process.
These factors, combined with the anticipated opening of our
state-of-the-art
O/R research lab, point to a bright future in computer
assisted surgery at HSS.
