Building independence, together 🌍
What started as a donation is now a long-term partnership.

At last week’s 12th Global Neurosurgery Course in Dar es Salaam, the focus was on strengthening local capabilities at Muhimbili Orthopaedic Institute (MOI) through hands-on training and exchange.
Organized by Prof. Roger Härtl, MD, in collaboration with MOI, Weill Cornell Medicine in New York and the North American Spine Society (NASS), the course brought together global expertise and local practice.
Together with the Weill Cornell Medicine Tanzania Neurosurgery Project, the Brainlab Social Program and the Right.Brain Foundation e.V., we have supported clinical practice at MOI for over three years—initially focusing on spine procedures and more recently expanding into cranial applications. 🤝

To date, 65 spine and 29 cranial cases have been performed using navigation, supporting pre-operative planning, streamlining workflows and guiding complex cases.
On site, Brainlab colleagues Dominique Doerner, product owner and Christoph Hahn, software engineer, worked closely with the local team, sharing knowledge while learning from real-world clinical environments.
The result is a program that continues to grow in confidence, capability and independence 📈

Because real impact comes from continuity, collaboration and local ownership ✨

Special thanks to the team onsite: Mariam Mzingi, MD, Hamisi Shabani, MD, Romani Sabas, MD and Elo Ibekwe.

Advancing intraoperative ultrasound together 🧠

Last week, Brainlab headquarters welcomed neurosurgeons from around the world for the Masters Series: Intraoperative Ultrasound in Neurosurgery.

This exclusive, in-person training combined expert-led lectures with hands-on sessions using advanced ultrasound systems, neurosurgical phantoms and a data simulation platform. Participants worked with real patient ultrasound volumes to further develop their intraoperative skills and support precise surgical decision making.

A special thank you to Scientific Chair Geirmund Unsgård from the NTNU - Norges teknisk-naturvitenskapelige universitet in Trondheim, Norway and an outstanding international faculty for leading insightful discussions and sharing their expertise. And of course, to all participants and supporters who made this exchange so valuable 🙌

Moments like these highlight the importance of collaboration, practical training and continuous learning in neurosurgery.

🦾 At the World Congress of Endoscopic Spine Surgery & MISS in Tulum, Mexico, Brainlab showcased how our interconnected ecosystem supports every step of minimally invasive spine surgery, from preop planning to intraoperative imaging and robotic assistance.

By connecting each step, these solutions help surgeons manage complex cases, support the entire surgical workflow and tailor procedures to each patient’s unique anatomy.

We were proud to host a dedicated Robotic MISS workshop with José Luis Sanmillán, MD, neurosurgeon at Hospital Universitari Bellvitge in Barcelona, Spain.

In hands-on sessions, participants explored how Brainlab Robotic Suite—Loop-X®, Curve® Navigation, and Cirq®—addresses accuracy requirements at every step of surgery.

They also experienced Spine Mixed Reality Navigation*, which translates navigation and anatomical data from the screen directly into the operative field**, keeping critical information in view and supporting an ergonomic posture. 🥽

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Tulum. It was great to connect with the global endoscopic spine community! 🌍🤝

Aligned to change patient outcomes, from first image to final construct

➡️ Our newest Elements Spine Planning software is now CE marked.*

With sagittal alignment gaining importance, particularly as adult spinal deformity increases in an aging population, accurate, patientspecific planning is more essential than ever.

Our latest Elements Spine Planning release delivers enhanced solutions for patientspecific planning across a broad range of pathologies. The software introduces refined sagittalparameter visualizations and streamlined planning steps to support clarity during case preparation. A realsize rodbending template helps bring the planned alignment directly into the O.R. workflow for intraoperative use with Brainlab Spine & Trauma Navigation.

Progress begins with personalized planning:

🔹 Create a patient-specific spine avatar for sagittal alignment correction and real time automated spinopelvic measurement updates
🔹 Make use of AI algorithms during time-consuming routine steps while maintaining control
🔹 Streamline your workflow and seamlessly transfer patient plans to the O.R., where segmented anatomical structures and planned implants are ready for intraoperative use

🎭 Big questions on stage

Over the last few days, the Theme Concerts by the Bayerische Staatsoper transformed the Brainlab atrium into a unique space for reflection, dialogue and artistic discovery.

Exploring this season’s motto, “we are what we make ourselves to be,” the interdisciplinary program brought together leading voices from neuroscience, AI research, and the humanities with musical works spanning from the English Renaissance to contemporary compositions by composer Brett Dean.

From questions about the rationality of the human brain to the challenges of responsibility in the age of AI and the deeper motivations behind human action, each evening opened new perspectives on timeless conflicts that continue to shape our lives today.

Thank you to the artists, speakers and audiences who joined us for this inspiring exchange between science and art. Projects like these reflect what the Brainlab Culture Program stands for: curiosity, dialogue and the courage to explore complex ideas together.

🔖A new chapter in advanced spine surgery at Palmetto General Hospital in Hialeah, FL, begins with Spine Mixed Reality Navigation,* delivering patient imaging and navigation data directly into the surgeon's field of view.

Developed to support orientation, visualization and ergonomics in the O.R., Spine Mixed Reality Navigation combines the reliability of optical navigation with advanced mixed reality visualization.

Essential navigation information is projected directly into the sterile field, enabling pedicle screw placement, including in minimally invasive spine procedures where target identification can be challenging.

By integrating mixed reality into the surgical workflow, surgeons can maintain continuous focus on patient anatomy without diverting attention to external navigation screens.

We look forward to collaborating with neurosurgeon Jose Valerio, MD, and team at Palmetto General Hospital as they integrate Spine Mixed Reality Navigation into their daily clinical practice.

“Spine Mixed Reality Navigation has given me tools to fundamentally change how I approach complex spine cases. The level of visualization and planning allows me to perform procedures that simply weren’t possible for me before—with greater precision and confidence for every patient.”** — Jose Valerio, MD, Palmetto General Hospital

🎉 Celebrating 300+ robotic spine cases with Cirq® at Baylor Scott & White Health in McKinney, Texas!

We’re proud to recognize Dr. Morgan and the surgical team for surpassing 300 robotic spine cases using Cirq®. Reaching this milestone in just a few years reflects a strong commitment to integrating robotic support into daily spinal procedures.

Cirq®’s modular robotic assistance helps support precise alignment and reproducible screw placement while streamlining key steps in the workflow. By providing hands-free guidance during critical moments, it allows the surgical team to focus fully on ex*****on.

"This milestone is a testament not just to our team, but to the strong partnership we’ve built with Brainlab and the streamlined solutions that have enhanced our workflow. The recent instrumentation updates, including the completely redesigned drill guide and the new, more robust patient reference clamps, have further improved precision and efficiency in our procedures.” — Dr. Morgan*
