By GlobalDataFurthermore, the new web-based automated planning solution integrates all previous PeekMed features and enables easy connection to other orthopaedic solutions in common anatomical regions of the adult musculoskeletal system.
These regions include the knees, hips and upper limbs.
PeekMed chairman and CEO João Pedro Ribeiro said: “With this FDA clearance, PeekMed is ready, once again, to be a game-changer in the integration of technology with orthopaedics.
“Having the ability to get a plan in less than 30 seconds is just incredible and a huge achievement for our team.
“We understood the pains of our surgeons, who were waiting hours, or sometimes days, to get a case planned. We aim to solve those challenges!”
The company plans to showcase the new automated orthopaedic solution at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting (AAOS), which is being held between 7 and 11 March in Las Vegas, Nevada, US.
