RASCAL™

Radiopaque Anterior Spine Center Locator

Recent studies have suggested that accurate centering of implant devices can result in improved surgical outcomes.  This is especially true for motion preserving devices but even in the case of anterior fusion procedures, accurate centering of interbody devices is a worthy goal.

RASCAL™ aids identification of the midline during the performance of open anterior procedures.  Almost any form of access that includes an incision of about 2 inches or more is suited for it's use.
