Joel Franck, MD, utilizes computerized navigation, the Stealth® system allows Dr. Franck to direct his instrumentation into places that are not even visible to the eye. Much like a GPS, the computer actually “tracks” the surgical instrument as it moves in relation to computerized 3-D images of the patient’s anatomy. This allows the surgeon to operate using the smallest incision possible.
