For patients with extensive polyp disease or multiple prior sinus surgeries, the natural anatomic landmarks utilized by surgeons to ensure a safe procedure – may not exist.
As a result, we employ image guided surgery in these cases to ensure a safe, effective procedure. Utilizing the latest technology, our surgical instruments are programmed to interact with your CT Scan of the Sinus. This allows us to utilize your CT Scan as a roadmap during the surgical procedure. In short, when our instruments contact a point in your sinus passageway, we see the corresponding point light up on your CT Scan. This technology is offered both in our office and in the operating room, allowing for a safe, effective procedure.
