BrainLAB's Kolibri spine is intended to be an intraoperative image-guided localization system to virtual computer image space on a patient's preoperative image data being processed by a Kolibri workstation. The system is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure of the cranium or vertebra can be identified relative to a CT, X-ray or MR-based model of the anatomy.
Device Story
Kolibri spine is an intraoperative image-guided surgery system for surgical planning and navigation. It tracks a freehand probe using a passive marker sensor system. Inputs include preoperative 3D image data (CT, X-ray, or MR) or intraoperatively acquired 2D fluoro images from a C-arm. The system registers the surgical instrument to the virtual computer image space; 3D data registration uses specific methods, while 2D fluoro registration is performed automatically using spatial position information from the C-arm. The workstation displays the tracked instrument relative to the patient's anatomy. Surgeons use this visual feedback to guide minimally invasive procedures, such as pedicle screw placement or tumor surgery. The device assists in precise instrument positioning, potentially improving surgical accuracy and patient outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. The device was verified and validated according to manufacturer procedures for product design and system use.
Technological Characteristics
Stereotaxic instrument; passive marker sensor system; workstation-based; supports 3D (CT/MR) and 2D (fluoro) imaging; registration via spatial position information or 3D registration methods.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring stereotactic surgery where rigid anatomical structures of the cranium or vertebra can be identified relative to CT, X-ray, or MR-based models. Procedures include spinal implant placement (e.g., pedicle screws), Kyphoplasty, Vertebroplasty, placement of k-wires, needles, catheters, electrodes, thoracic spine surgery, tumor surgery, and placement of acetabular and SI screws.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A stereotaxic instrument is a device consisting of a rigid frame with a calibrated guide mechanism for precisely positioning probes or other devices within a patient's brain, spinal cord, or other part of the nervous system.

#### Device Description:
Kolibri spine is a device that allows surgical planning and navigation. It links a surgical instrument, (tracked by Rulpir Spille is a doviou that allette caration on a virtual computer image, which is either based on patient's passive municil of online of a looking to a looking intraoperative acquired 20 fluoro image(s) of a c-arm.
The device enables the navigation based on 3D data and/or based on acquired fluoro images (Fluoro only).
Based on 3D data, the procedure of linking the surgical instrument to the virtual computer image is achieved by performing certain registration methods.
Based on 2D fluoro images, the registration is done automatically by using the exact spatial position information of the intra-operatively acquired fluoro images.
After registration, the device assists the surgeon in performing certain surgical procedures as described in the indications for use.
