OVERVIEW

Rooted in our commitment to the highest standards of patient care, professional education, and innovative techniques, our mission is to promote an advanced training course held for orthopedic and neurosurgeons specializing in spinal conditions. Distinguished speakers of international acclaim will delve into precise and specialized topics within endoscopic and minimally invasive spine surgery. While several minimally invasive approaches to the spine are used widely among spine surgeons in academic institutions and the community, the endoscopic approach is an emerging technique which is yet to be widely adopted. The approach itself carries several technical nuances which require in depth teaching on anatomy and endoscope ergonomics. We hope to educate and discuss indications and techniques for advancing the spine surgeon’s current understanding of the approach.

In-Person and Virtual attendance options are available. 

TARGET AUDIENCE

Neurosurgeons, Orthopedic Surgeons, Fellows and Residents

  • Discuss the various approaches to the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine using the endoscope.
