Clinica Ricardo Palma is the first private health center to have a highly specialized surgical microscope which allows performing extreme precision interventions and complex microsurgeries in a safer and more efficient way, such as operations on the brain, spine, among others. Dr. Einer Concha, neurosurgeon at our institution, comments that with the use of this tool the risk of complications is considerably reduced, carrying out safer operations, in less time and with better results for patients.

What does the microsurgical microscope allow?

The MP530 OHX microscope with GLOW800 allows the surgeon to make more precise decisions during the procedure, as it has an expanded surgical field of view in high resolution and colors, as well as an augmented reality fluorescence system that is used in combination with indocyanine green for a better perception of the intervened area. With this, the specialist can clearly distinguish compromised areas and tissues, making the necessary corrections without damaging healthy tissues.

What types of studies can be done?

With the microsurgical microscope, angiographic studies can be carried out during the intervention, which allow verifying the real status of arteriovenous malformations, aneurysms, tumors and lesions.

Are there other specialties that benefit from this technology?

This team is multidisciplinary and can be used in the following specialties:

• Otolaryngology
• Plastic and reconstructive surgery
• Head and neck surgery, among other specialties
