Medtronic has announced a partnership with Siemens Healthineers to expand access to advanced imaging technologies within the field of spine care.

This collaboration will involve co-marketing of the Siemens Healthineers Multitom Rax imaging system and integrating it into Medtronic's AiBLE ecosystem for spine surgery, enhancing clinical outcomes.

It will involve collaborative efforts in technology development, marketing, and commercial activities.

AiBLE combines connected care and predictive technology for advancing surgery.

The Multitom Rax offers a combination of imaging technologies suitable for musculoskeletal conditions, including spinal patients.

Its capabilities such as standing, cone-beam CT, weight-bearing imaging and supine X-ray, align with Medtronic's commitment to advancing the standard of care.

Medtronic Cranial and Spinal Technologies president Skip Kiil said: “Partnering with Siemens Healthineers advances our commitment to reduce variability and improve outcomes for spinal patients.”

Medtronic Cranial & Spinal Technologies is part of the company’s Neuroscience Portfolio.

At the North American Spine Society's 39th Annual Meeting in Chicago, Medtronic also unveiled several innovations in software, hardware, and imaging as part of the AiBLE ecosystem.

These advancements include the O-arm 4.3 software with enhanced navigation and dose reduction, the UNiD Adaptive Spine Intelligence platform with MRI Vision, and the Mazor robotic guidance system with AI-integrated 5.1 software.

Additionally, the new ModuLeX Spinal System was introduced, offering improved surgical area visibility and flexibility to optimise patient-specific constructs.

Siemens Healthineers X-ray products executive vice-president Verena Schoen said: "Multitom Rax delivers geometrically accurate images, which allows precise measurements of the patient's vertebrae.

“Especially optimised for spine imaging, it not only contributes to faster diagnosis and treatment planning but also surgical execution and post-surgical control.”
