A New Study (A): use this when this is the first surgical procedure for a new patient.
B New Study (Keep Tools): discard patient data but use the calibrations of the selected tools
from the previous study. Useful if you need to do several scans on the same patient for
different areas of the back.
C Load Previous Study: usually used in the event of a system problem; after rebooting it uses
the information previously stored.
Note: If no selection is made, the XVS SOFTWARE defaults to New Study (Keep
Tools) (B) when the scan arrives. This is the recommended option.
When you have made your choice the XVISION-SPINE system is now ready to receive data from
the patient scan, as seen in the following screen.
