KOLIBRI ENT SYSTEM<br />

The Kolibri <strong>system</strong> was designed with the goal of making image-guided surgery available to every pati<strong>ent</strong>. Since Kolibri<br />

ENT is compact and affordable it is ideal for surgery c<strong>ent</strong>ers and for hospitals with smaller case loads or hospitals in<br />

need of additional treatm<strong>ent</strong> capacity. The <strong>system</strong>’s lightweight portable design makes it easy to move between multiple<br />

facilities. With the ability to track pre-existing surgical instrum<strong>ent</strong>s, to display live endoscopic video, and to control the<br />

<strong>system</strong> via the touchscreen monitor, Kolibri’s integration into the surgical procedure is straightforward. Driven by<br />

BrainLAB’s user-friendly software, the learning curve of the <strong>system</strong> is extremely short.<br />

LOADING OF PATIENT DATA Pati<strong>ent</strong> data will be automatically<br />

loaded upon data transfer completion. Using the hospital’s network<br />

connection and the universal DICOM format, the new software<br />

PatXfer assures a simple and time-saving data transfer.<br />

Data on the scanner can be accessed and easily retrieved.<br />

PATIENT SETUP BrainLAB’s Reference Headband is attached<br />

to the pati<strong>ent</strong>’s head ensuring dynamic tracking throughout the<br />

case and eliminating the need for invasive pati<strong>ent</strong> immobilization<br />

and uncomfortable headsets. This dynamic reference device<br />

allows for unpreced<strong>ent</strong>ed freedom of movem<strong>ent</strong> during navigation<br />

while maintaining a high degree of accuracy.<br />

PATIENT REGISTRATION Equipped with the standard wireless<br />

Softouch pointer the pati<strong>ent</strong> is easily registered within seconds.<br />

The pointer uses a sensitive tip to detect the surface points on<br />

the pati<strong>ent</strong>’s skin. For additional intra-operative registration, other<br />

methods such as the z-touch� laser are also compatible with the<br />

<strong>system</strong>.<br />

NAVIGATION The Kolibri ENT interface guides the surgeon<br />

through the procedure and provides continuous information on<br />

instrum<strong>ent</strong> position and movem<strong>ent</strong> in multiple planes.<br />

Simultaneously, a real-time endoscopic view can be displayed on<br />

the navigation screen.
