Physician Commendations
 "The Odin system
represents a new generation in intraoperative MRI and a real revolution
in neurosurgery. I think that this system and systems like it
will be the state of the art and the standard of care in years
to come."
"One of the benefits of this type of system is that it allows
the neurosurgeon to have intraoperative feedback to see exactly
what he or she has accomplished during the operation. Oftentimes
the use of preoperative imaging is inaccurate, and one may think
that they have removed most of the tumor when they really have
not."
Gene H. Barnett, MD
Professor and Vice Chairman
Department of Neurological Surgery
The Cleveland Clinic Foundation
"Odin has raised the standard for surgical planning and operative
feedback. The option to modify the extent of tumor resection based
on MRI images greatly enhances my ability to safely approach radical
tumor resection."
H. Warren Goldman, MD, PhD
Professor and Chairman
Department of Neurosurgery
MCP Hahnemann University / Medical College of
Pennsylvania Hospital, Philadelphia
"I think that the size of the system and its versatility is the
ingenuity of the technology. It's small and versatile and it gives
good images so altogether it seems like, I would dare to say,
an ideal system."
Moshe Hadani, MD
Chairman of Neurosurgery
Sheba Medical Center
Tel Aviv, Israel
"The advantage of a scan like this done during surgery is that
the detail on the scan is so good that you can see not only where
the tumor is but where other critical structures are."
"You don't have to rely on guesswork. You can actually see how
much you have removed, how much needs to be removed, if any, and
where you're operating. It's revolutionary. There's no question
it's the future of surgery."
Michael Schulder, MD
Associate Professor of Neurological Surgery
New Jersey Medical School, Newark
"The PoleStar™ has been a major asset to our practice."
"The new software advances allow highly detailed, ‘side-by-side’
comparisons of the pre-op, intra-op and post-op images, allowing
us the best possible resection for our patients."
George K. Bovis, M.D.
Lutheran General Hospital, Chicago, IL
“There is no real neuronavigation without intra-operative
imaging.”
