PANO – Military Hospital 175 of the Ministry of National Defence and foreign partners held a short training course on applying the C-Arm 3D surgical imaging technology with Navigation positioning system to spine surgery on September 22nd.
It is the first hospital in Vietnam to carry out the technology. It helps surgeons monitor surgical procedures without X-rays effects.
Besides, the technology is widely applied to brain, ear, nose and throat surgery.
Right after the course, the hospital’s doctors successfully performed an operation on a patient.
