OnPoint Surgical

OnPoint Surgical specializes in AR guidance for surgical spinal procedures, including minimally invasive, robotic, implant, and non-implant surgery. The company’s platform superimposes virtual surgical guides and virtual spinal implants onto the surgeon’s visual field using see-through optical head-mounted displays. Additionally, its tech is applicable to hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers. In September 2023 , the company received 510(k) FDA clearance for its AR spine system.

The company claims that its patent-protected platform demonstrates superior accuracy in spine surgery, with its use of preoperative CT scans resulting in decreased intraoperative OR time by 15–20 minutes per intraoperative spin and reduced radiation exposure for patients. Additionally, the system showed a 2x–5x improvement in accuracy over major existing navigation, robotic, and AR systems. Furthermore, OnPoint claims that its solution is a cost-effective solution compared to alternative robotic systems via its combined use of optics and haptics for surgery.

OnPoint’s sister companies specializing in AR guidance include 1) OnPoint Knee for total knee replacement procedures, 2) OnPoint Hip for hip replacements, and 3) OnPoint Sports for arthroscopic and robotic procedures. The companies have a Scientific Advisory Board from institutions including Harvard Medical School, Stanford University, and Weill Cornell Medical College.
