This procedure is done by several ortho surgeons in the US. It involves robotic navigation and 3D images, computer assisted. Dr Nguyen was trained by Stryker to use this minimal invasion TKR. The hospitals invest millions for the robotic navigation system, not Dr Nguyen. There are other companies that have developed robotic navigation, Maco and Praxim are two. This procedure is not for everyone, your doctor will tell you if you are a candidate.
