Templating Announces Solution For Veterinary Orthopaedic Surgeons
June 15, 2017
OrthoView, the global leader in digital pre-operative planning and templating solutions, announced the introduction of OrthoViewVET, a digital planning and templating solution for veterinary orthopaedic surgeons.
Bringing to bear all the knowledge and skill gained in developing OrthoView, the worlds most used planning and templating solution for people, members of the OrthoView team have created OrthoViewVET, a solution for small animals and horses. Providing templating for joint replacement, fracture management, limb deformity, and general measurement, OrthoViewVET can be integrated into any CR/DR or PACS solution. Alternatively, the new veterinary orthopaedic application is also available as stand-alone software.
"Facing the same kind of situation as orthopaedic surgeons, many veterinary orthopaedic surgeons work in clinics and hospitals that have gone digital," said Chris Pinner, OrthoView Vice President. "This digital turn puts them in need of a digital planning and templating solution. OrthoViewVET is that solution. It provides vets with a powerful digital tool that is a quicker, easier, and more accurate way of addressing the orthopaedic surgery issues that they face everyday."
Dr Antonio Pozzi, Assistant Professor in Small Animal Surgery at the University of Florida Veterinary Medical Center, helped in the development of OrthoViewVET. He said "I teach the principles and the importance of accurate planning for tibial osteotomies, total hip replacement and fracture fixation. The ability to visualize all this on-screen using the specially designed tools in OrthoViewVET is an enormous step forward."
Product Overview
A practical and economic solution, OrthoViewVET offers a selection of scaling and templating tools. Its scaling capabilities allow calibration of digital images to be performed either by using a radiographic marker in conjunction with OrthoView's scaling tools or by entering an estimated magnification oversize. The marker must be placed in the plane of the joint or bone in question.
OrthoViewVET's templating capabilities include:
- Joint Replacement (for total knee, total hip, total elbow)
- Fracture Management (for trauma reduction, planning and templating, including the ability to visualise the bending of plates)
- Cranial Cruciate Ligament Surgery (for TPLO and Tibial Wedge Osteotomy, with on-screen visualisation of post-operative results)
- Limb Deformity Surgery (corrective osteotomy planning)
- General Measurements and Assessments
OrthoViewVET offers high quality digital templates from all major veterinary orthopaedic manufacturers including:
- BioMedtrix
- Imex Veterinary Inc
- Innovative Animal Products
- Kyon
- Orthomed
- Synthes
- Veterinary Instrumentation
All templates are free and can be downloaded from the OrthoView website. The template library is held on-line; and it is managed and updated by OrthoView. Once the software has been installed, the database may be accessed and appropriate templates downloaded. On-going access to current templates is included in the product maintenance cost.
