Medtronic received information regarding a guidance system being used during a spinal procedure.It was reported that the images imported into the system were in the wrong orientation and that the depth of the image was off.The manufacture representative reported attempting a scan and plan case for 2-level tlif.The representative imported the scan with usb and the screen on system went black.The representative performed a soft reboot and imported the scan a second time.The representative was able to continue with setup until arriving at the first trajectory, where they observed that navigation was off.This was identified by observing the navigation and seeing the image flipped upside down as well as the passive planar probe pointing on the wrong side of the body.The representative indicated that when they sent to the first trajectory right l3 and it looked like the probe was pointing to the left side of t he patient's stomach/body of the vertebra.The representative believed the reason for this issue was incorrect patient parameters set on the imaging system.Navigation with the guidance system was aborted and the surgical team completed the surgery with a different navigation system.There was no patient harm and the procedure was delayed one hour or longer.
