Radix - The Clear Choice In Passive Technology
 NDI is developing a new passive tracking technology designed specifically for harsh surgical environments. The Radix™ Marker is a clear, solid-plastic, retro-reflective lens designed to work with the Polaris and Polaris Spectra Position Sensors. The surface of the marker is a smooth plastic hemisphere which naturally sheds liquid contamination.
UBC - Improving Future of Intramedullary Nailing with Aurora
 The
ability to continuously track
implants in real-time after
insertion, and always
be able to determine the
positions and orientations
of the distal locking holes
to a high degree of accuracy,
could largely eliminate the
need for fluoroscopy during
distal locking and significantly
reduce time required for
this portion of the procedure.
Bigger Measurement Volume for Aurora
 The versatility of the Aurora® system has been enhanced with the introduction of a new volume. At three times the size of the existing Cube volume, and with the same accuracy, the new Dome volume will allow the Aurora system to be used in many new electromagnetic measurement applications.
Polaris Vicra - Improved Accuracy and Small Footprint
 With its improved accuracy and small footprint, the Polaris Vicra® opens new doors in exciting clinical and research areas. The small size and light weight enable it to be less intrusive than traditional Position Sensors, enabling unprecedented access to the site of interest.
NDI Provides Important Tools for Innovation at the Technical University of Munich
The research department MIMED (Micro Technology and Medical Device Engineering) of Professor Dr. Tim C. Lueth at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), Germany has a strong focus on using coordinate measuring devices for different applications. A major topic is the design of surgical assistance systems such as surgical navigation and medical robots.
Accuracy Explained
In our field of work, we come across many research
papers where
the concept of
accuracy is discussed – be
it the accuracy
of a measurement
system, or the
assessed clinical
accuracy of targeting
a specific point
in space, but
what does accuracy
really mean?
