OrthoView Introduces SmartHip for Total Hip Planning in Less Than 60 Seconds

OrthoView LLC, providers of digital planning solutions for orthopaedics, launched the latest version of their software at AAOS 2010. OrthoView Version 6 includes SmartHip automatic templating, an innovation that enables the user to plan a total hip procedure in less than 60 seconds.

SmartHip is one of the latest developments from OrthoView, available with the newest Version 6 release of the software.

SmartHip enables the surgeon to template a total hip in less than 60 seconds by automatically placing the prosthesis stem template within the femur in the on-screen image. Said William Peterson, Vice President of Sales for North America. It also has a one-click reduction feature that provides the surgeon with an instant view of the post-operative position of the femur for a streamlined on-screen templating process. SmartHip is an integrated feature of OrthoView 6.
