First ExcelsiusHub™ Cases in the United States
ExcelsiusHub™ is designed to elevate the safety and reproducibility of spine navigation through real-time patient array monitoring, tissue-sparing drills, and registration flexibility. The system joins our ecosystem of Excelsius™ technologies in first cases at Mayfield Brain & Spine in Cincinnati, OH, Miami Valley Hospital South in Dayton, OH, and Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, IL.

Spanning degenerative to complex deformity applications, Dr. Norah Foster of Miami Valley Hospital South and Dr. Ryan Godinsky of Mayfield Brain & Spine have used ExcelsiusHub™ and Globus enabling technologies for a range of procedures, including posterior lumbar and cervical fusion, eXtreme Lateral Interbody Fusion (XLIF™), anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF),* and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF).
“ExcelsiusHub™ supports a variety of procedures, from minimally invasive to complex spinal deformity surgeries, enabling us to optimize treatment for many spine patients at Miami Valley Hospital South. Our goal has always been to do the right surgery for the right patient for the right reason. ExcelsiusHub™ is where innovation meets accuracy, giving us the right tool to elevate spinal surgical excellence for our patients.”
– Dr. Norah Foster, Miami Valley Hospital South
“ExcelsiusHub™ has been a big advancement for our practice and for patients in the Dayton area. We are able to work faster with navigation because it offers enhanced accuracy as compared to conventional techniques. One of the things I like about the technology is the alert when accuracy may be compromised. ExcelsiusHub™ is intuitive for surgeons and medical staff, so there is little wasted time. Overall, this is a technological enhancement that may result in more efficient operating rooms and surgical solutions for patients.”

Equipped with ExcelsiusGPS™ and Excelsius3D™, Rush University Medical Center expanded the reach of the Excelsius™ Ecosystem with the addition of ExcelsiusHub™ to provide greater case coverage. Dr. John O’Toole successfully led the institution’s first spine case using the ExcelsiusHub™ system while ExcelsiusGPS™ was being utilized in a separate procedure.
“We have had great success with the adoption of the ExcelsiusGPS™ robot and Excelsius3D™ imaging system for spinal surgery at our institution. The addition of ExcelsiusHub™ further broadens our options within the intraoperative navigation platform. The technology allows for implant placement accuracy and surgical efficiency over a wide variety of cases.”
