Zusatzinformationen:

This intensive workshop offers participants a unique opportunity to expand their knowledge and practical skills in the diagnosis, planning,     and surgical management of complex spinal conditions over three focused days. Participants will develop a detailed understanding of diagnostic imaging, surgical planning, 3D planning, implant selection, and fixation techniques for cervical and lumbosacral spinal conditions as well as spinal fractures. Through expert lectures, practical planning sessions, dry bone exercises, wet labs, and focused discussions, they will learn about the clinical application of the C-LOX®, LeiPED, LeiCAGE, and LeiLOX systems.Implant Systemsfrom Rita Leibinger MedicalNEW!
