The Renaissance robotic navigation system allows for spinal surgeries of any complexity – from the simplest to the most complex, achieving previously unattainable precision, thus making procedures faster, cheaper, and safer for the patient.
Operation with the Renaissance Robot:
faster, safer, without complications
Advantages of Using Renaissance
- Treatment with Renaissance offers high precision in surgical intervention: physical accuracy of about 1.5 mm, which translates to an accuracy of 98-99% in relative terms.
- The Mazor Robotics technology allows for effective minimally invasive spinal surgeries, vertebroplasty, biopsy, while minimizing the dose of radiation exposure (to create a three-dimensional model of the spine, the computer only needs to analyze a few X-ray images).
- Patients spend less time in the operating room and recover their strength more quickly after surgery.
The Renaissance System – Precise Surgeries on the Spine
To create a complete three-dimensional model of the spine, doctors only need to use a few tomographic images. Using the three-dimensional model created before the surgery, the surgeon, under visual control and with the help of a special platform, positions the instruments in such a way that they match the planned surgical intervention site as accurately as possible. For example, during spinal fusion (fixation of vertebrae), the surgeon can place screws that need to be implanted in the vertebra with an accuracy of 1.5 millimeters using the Renaissance system. Achieving such precision manually is nearly impossible – even the most experienced spinal surgeons have an accuracy of about 90%, while the accuracy of placements made by Mazor approaches 98-99%.
If traditional open spinal surgeries involve large incisions, a high risk of complications, and a long rehabilitation period for the patient, then performing minimally invasive interventions with the Renaissance robot eliminates such negative aspects. These surgeries are performed through several small incisions, and the progress of the intervention is monitored through a combination of computed tomography, three-dimensional modeling, and a special navigation platform that is placed on the patient's back, through which surgical instruments are introduced into the spine with unparalleled precision.
An additional advantage of this technology is the reduction in the use of intraoperative computed tomography (and thus a reduction in radiation exposure to the patient).

Manufacturer
A new generation of computerized navigation systems for spinal surgery, Renaissance, was recently created by Mazor Robotics. The system is based on the fundamental principles used by Mazor in SpineAssist – the first surgical complex of its kind developed in the company's laboratories. Renaissance represents the next generation of the SpineAssist system with perfected surgical intervention accuracy.
Cost of Surgeries Using the Renaissance System
Although the robotic navigation system itself is very expensive, surgeries performed using Renaissance cost the same as regular minimally invasive spinal surgeries, and in some cases, significantly less. By using the computerized navigation complex, the surgeon can complete the operation faster, allowing the patient to return to normal daily activities in a shorter time, which reduces treatment costs.
Every year, thousands of patients come to Israel for quality and affordable treatment – as the cost of spinal surgeries in Israeli clinics is lower than in European Union countries and the United States by at least 20-40%.
