The company representative (cr) assisted the surgeon for an seeg case using bs (b)(4).
After the case was complete, a few post-op scans were obtained from the o-arm, and merged into the software.
The merge appeared to have worked correctly.
It was found
that all of the laterally placed electrodes appeared to be off at entry by more than 4mm.
The surgeon noted that a shift most likely did not occur, the patient was very secure with the leksell frame, so the surgeon is worried that the accuracy was due to something with rosa.
The two insular electrodes appeared to be more accurate, and these were placed obliquely (versus laterally).
Contactless registration was used, and there were no errors during the registration, everything appeared to be correct.
Verification also passed.
The cr looked at the most recent preventive maintenance forms for the last four accuracy tests on form f-019, and it appears the x error appears to be around 2mm for each test, and then y and z appear to be anywhere from 1.
5-1.
7mm of error.
The serial number for the laser is (b)(4), so the laser itself is almost 5 years old.
The surgeon requested that an investigation be performed asap, since the surgeon is concerned about accuracy for their future cases.
