First the robot performs a <strong>scan<\/strong> of the <strong>patient<\/strong> before <strong>beginning<\/strong> the <strong>surgery<\/strong>. It then <strong>converts<\/strong> the <strong>x-ray<\/strong> into a <strong>3D model<\/strong> so that the surgeon can clearly see where it will be <strong>operating<\/strong>.\u00a0<strong>Major X<\/strong> uses <strong>powerful\u00a0algorithm<\/strong>s to plan the <strong>surgery<\/strong> on its own. The <strong>surgeons<\/strong> then take <strong>control<\/strong> and <strong>perform<\/strong> the surgery, however<strong> Mazor X<\/strong> is still <strong>acting<\/strong> as <strong>positioning<\/strong> <strong>device<\/strong> during the whole surgery. The robot\u2019s\u00a0<strong>introscopic camer<\/strong>a is used as <strong>visual aid<\/strong> for the surgeons to make sure the surgery goes <strong>smoothly<\/strong> and <strong>rapidly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additionally, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mazorrobotics.com\/index.php\/mazor-product-portfolio\/renaissance-guidance-system\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mazor Robotics Renaissance\u00ae System<\/a> can also be used for a variety of <strong>brain procedures<\/strong>.
