Description of the StealthStation™ system The StealthStation™ System, also known as an Image Guided System (IGS), is comprised of a platform, clinical software, surgical instruments, and a referencing system (which includes patient and instrument trackers). The IGS tracks the position of instruments in relation to the surgical anatomy, known as localization, and then identifies this position on preoperative or intraoperative images of a patient. The StealthStation™ platform supports both optical and electromagnetic (EM) localization. Localization is also called navigation.

5

Introduction System installation Localization is achieved when the system (hardware and software) creates a map between all points in the patient images and the corresponding points on the patient anatomy. After this map has been established, whenever the operator touches a point on the patient with a tracked instrument or pointing device, the computer uses the map to identify the corresponding point on the patient images. A localized point is identified on the system display with multiple patient image planes and possibly other anatomical renderings. The StealthStation™ platform is made up of one or more carts which contain the key navigation components including the localizers and the computer with the operating system.

System installation The StealthStation™ S8 system is installed by qualified Medtronic personnel only. If you have any questions about your system installation, contact Medtronic Navigation.

Use profile The intended user profile for the StealthStation™ system is operating room staff, including surgeons, nurses, surgical technologists, and hospital biomedical engineers. The intended patient population for the system is patients for whom stereotactic image guided surgery is appropriate.

For repair or replacement of any part of the system or application, contact a Medtronic Navigation™ technical support representative. Caution: To avoid interrupting navigation, do not use the StealthStation™ S8 system on battery power alone while the system is in use with a patient. Caution: Periodically plug in the system to recharge the backup batteries. The backup batteries on the main cart and the camera cart are intended to keep the system operating for a short time if power is lost or disconnected. If the backup batteries are not charged, the system will shut down immediately when power is lost. The backup battery in the camera cart will recharge only when the two carts are connected with the cart-to-cart cable. Caution: Before surgery, clean the system carts and other non-sterilizable system components according to the parameters in the StealthStation™ S8 cleaning instructions (9735727). Caution: The system mouse and keyboard are not designed for sterilization and may be damaged if sterilization is attempted. Caution: System components are fragile. Use care when handling system components. Caution: Keep the rear storage bin clear of extraneous materials which could block air flow through the perforated panel. Blocking air flow could result in excessive internal cart temperatures, which could degrade the system’s performance and longevity. Caution: Avoid spilling fluids onto casters because fluid may impair the braking ability and the stability of the cart at rest on inclined surfaces.

System overview

How the system works The StealthStation™ S8 system, which is a combination of hardware and software, works in conjunction with special trackable instruments to help guide surgeons during surgical procedures. To achieve this guidance, the system tracks the position of a specialized instrument in relation to the surgical anatomy and transmits that information to the software. The software then displays the instrument’s position on diagnostic or intraoperative images of the patient. The system can track instruments either optically or electromagnetically. Some systems may have one or both of the tracking methods. With optical tracking, a camera (also called a localizer) detects infrared light from optical markers (either reflective spheres or LEDs) on the specialized instrument. The infrared light is either emitted by the camera and reflected off spheres on the instrument or emitted directly by LEDs on the instrument. The camera transmits the instrument’s location to the navigation software. Similarly, with electromagnetic tracking, an emitter and an instrument interface work together as a localizer. The emitter emits a low-energy magnetic field with unique characteristics at every point. The electromagnetic instruments contain sensors which allow the navigation software to identify the instrument’s location within the electromagnetic field. For the software to display the instrument’s location in relation to images of the patient, you must assist the software by creating a map between points on the patient and points in the images. This process is called registration. After registration is complete, whenever the operator touches a point on the patient using a special tracked instrument, the computer uses the map to identify the corresponding point on the images. This identification is called navigation. A navigated point is identified on the system display within multiple patient image planes and other anatomical renderings.

Precautions Caution: Portable and mobile RF (radio frequency) communications equipment can affect the StealthStation™ S8 system.

Dynamic referencing To maintain accuracy, the StealthStation™ S8 system uses dynamic referencing to constantly track the position of the anatomy during registration and navigation. Two devices are necessary for dynamic referencing: a patient reference frame and a localizer. The patient reference frame is rigidly positioned with respect to the anatomy. The localizer, which is either a camera for optical tracking or an emitter and instrument interface for electromagnetic tracking, locates the patient reference frame and reports the frame’s position to the navigation software.

13

System overview How the system works Because the reference frame sits in a rigid, fixed position with respect to the anatomy, any movement of the anatomy or the localizer results in corresponding movement of the reference frame in the localizer’s field of view. This enables the localizer to detect any movement of the anatomy by detecting the position of the reference frame, which moves concurrently with anatomy. Then, the system can display the instrument or implant location relative to the patient reference frame, thereby maintaining accurate navigation. Without dynamic referencing, any movement of the localizer after registration would invalidate the registration because the position of the reference frame would change in the navigation field. Dynamic referencing allows the flexibility to reposition the localizer at any time. Each tracking method has its own unique reference frames. Optical reference frames feature a set of markers (reflective spheres or infrared LEDs) mounted on a frame. Electromagnetic reference frames include a set of embedded sensors housed within a small module. Consult the software’s instructions for use for more information.

Optical localization system The optical localization system determines the position of the instrument and patient in the operating room by using a camera (a type of localizer) to track the positions of optical markers. The camera’s field of view and the software determine the optical navigation field. In the case of instruments, the markers are attached directly to the instrument body. In the case of the patient, the markers are attached to a patient reference frame. The system user connects the patient reference frame to a support mechanism and secures that mechanism in a fixed position in relation to the patient anatomy. There are two types of optical markers. Some components may have infrared LED optical markers, and others may have reflective spheres. LEDs generate and emit infrared light. Reflective spheres reflect infrared light that is emitted by the camera. The camera detects the optical markers, determines their spatial positions using the principle of triangulation, and constantly reports this information to the computer. The system constantly recomputes the relative spatial positions and orientations of the patient reference frame and instrument in the navigation field, and relates this information to the patient registration data in order to identify the location of the instrument on the operative images and on optional 3D renderings.

Camera Warning: The optical system emits (and receives) infrared light and can cause, or be susceptible to, infrared interference. Caution: Before use, clean the camera lenses according to the StealthStation™ S8 cleaning instructions (9735727). Dirty camera lenses could impair optimal performance of the camera. Caution: Allow the camera to warm up for 3 minutes after powering on the system because the camera will not track instruments or the patient reference frame until it has warmed up.

14

System overview How the system works The standard infrared camera uses two lenses to geometrically triangulate the spatial coordinates of each optical marker on the instrument and the reference frame. In the case of devices with LEDs (such as the active registration probe), the camera lenses receive infrared light signals directly from the LEDs on each device. In the case of passive (wireless) devices, the reflective spheres on each device reflect light emitted by infrared illuminators on the camera back into the camera lenses. The camera constantly communicates the location of each LED or reflective sphere to the system. In order to effectively localize the LEDs or reflective spheres, the camera must be aimed toward the devices (see Figure 2) and positioned at the proper distance from them, which varies between 1.0 m and 2.4 m (3.3 ft and 7.9 ft) and 1.0 m and 3.0 m (3.3 ft and 9.8 ft) depending on the software application.

Laser aiming system Warning: The laser aiming system is a Class 2 laser that transmits laser radiation. Use caution when operating the device, and never allow the laser beam to enter someone’s eye. Laser radiation, even at low levels, can damage the eyes. The laser aiming system (located between the camera lenses, see Figure 1) helps to aim the camera by projecting a low-power laser beam approximately in the center of the camera’s field of view. The laser is activated by a trigger button in the handle. Press the on/off trigger button to activate the laser and release the button to deactivate the laser.

Electromagnetic localization system The electromagnetic (EM) localization system tracks instruments and anatomy simultaneously. An EM emitter is placed near the surgical field, and it generates a low-energy magnetic field, called the navigation field, that encompasses the anatomy of interest. Because every location in the navigation field has unique characteristics, the system can determine the position of a tracked device by measuring the field characteristics at that location. Sensors embedded in the patient reference frame, which is attached to the patient’s fixed anatomy, enable the system to identify the location of the anatomy of interest in the EM field. Similarly, sensors embedded in the pointer probe or other instrument enable the system to identify the instrument’s position and, for some instruments, the trajectory in the field. The system constantly re-computes the relative spatial positions of the patient reference frame and instrument in the navigation field, and relates this information to the patient registration data in order to identify the location of the instrument on the operative images. 16

Electromagnetic instrument interface The main cart houses the electromagnetic localization system components including the EM instrument interface and the emitter. These EM components connect directly to the main cart. The main cart includes a computer, monitor, and all related peripheral devices. The main cart is a platform from which the surgeon or qualified assistant can control the navigation software. Figure 3: EM instrument interface

System overview How the system works

Electromagnetic emitters The StealthStation™ S8 system supports the use of 2 emitter designs: the side-mount emitter and the flat emitter. You can use only 1 emitter with the system at any given time. Connect the emitter to the EM emitter port on the main cart localization I/O panel (see “Main cart I/O panel connections” on page 31). Warning: Do not use the side-mount emitter or the flat emitter in ambient (room) temperatures greater than 30°C (86°F). Exceeding this temperature limit could result in navigational inaccuracy or patient or user harm from excessive temperatures. Warning: Do not place the side-mount emitter in contact with the patient because the emitter temperature may reach 48°C (118°F). Warning: Do not exceed the maximum weight load of 6.5 kg (14 lbs) on the flat emitter. Warning: The side-mount emitter, the flat emitter, and the arm assembly that supports the sidemount emitter are not intended for sterile patient contact or interaction. If you place these items in the sterile field, bag or drape them. Warning: If the flat emitter is left in the storage bin during system use, it can reach 56°C (133°F). In this condition, allow the flat emitter to cool for five minutes outside of the storage bin before patient contact. Caution: For procedures performed with the flat emitter, a surgical table with a radiolucent table top is recommended. If the surgical table has a metal frame or metal side rails, position the flat emitter at least 5 cm (2 in) away from the metal. Positioning the emitter closer may result in reduced navigational accuracy and volume. Caution: If the surgical table to be used with the side-mount emitter has a metal frame or metal side rails, position the side-mount emitter at least 25 cm (10 in) away from the metal. Positioning the emitter closer may result in reduced navigational accuracy and volume. Caution: Procedures performed with the side-mount emitter require a surgical bed featuring side rails because the arm assembly that supports the emitter connects to the side rails.

Side-mount emitter navigation field The side-mount emitter produces a low-energy magnetic field that encompasses the emitter. Minimize the amount of metal placed in this field. The navigation field, the portion of the magnetic field that is appropriate for navigation, begins 8 cm (3 in) from the emitter face and has a cubical volume of approximately 31.0 cm x 46.0 cm x 46.0 cm (12.2 in x 18.1 in x 18.1 in) (length x width x height). For best results, place the patient in the center of the navigation field. The side-mount emitter may be placed in a holder which is mounted to the operating table or to the main cart. For additional information about setting up the emitter, refer to the emitter setup quick reference guide (9735730).
