Last week was a great one for innovation in interventional pain therapy — not only on the international stage at American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting and ECR by European Society of Radiology, but also directly in clinical practice.
Last week, Dr. med. Anja Buerfeind and Dr. med. Gökce Özel successfully completed multiple PRT procedures in SpezOrtho clinic in Bergisch Gladbach using the combined Newtom CBCT system and the Laser Robot Arm
Their work is another clear demonstration of how robotic laser guidance and high‑resolution imaging elevate precision and workflow in everyday interventions.
Innovation truly sparks not on event stages, but in the hands of big profis, whose expertise makes this milestone even stronger:
- Dr. Anja Buerfeind is a specialist at SpezOrtho who combines orthopaedic expertise with physiotherapy and acupuncture for truly holistic care..
- Dr. med. Gökce Özel is a certified D‑Arzt and leads a modern orthopaedic clinic Spezrtho with deep experience in image‑guided procedures.
As always, the ATLAS medical technologies team — in this case represented by Mr. Tayfun Şen — stands alongside the clinicians, supporting them in implementing and scaling this innovative workflow for spine treatment and beyond.
