How It Works
A head mask is placed on the patient to pinpoint anatomical landmarks. CT images are loaded into our sinus GPS navigation system and calibrated to pre-set reference points recorded during the CT scan. Dr. Mandel then maps bone landmarks and measures tissue density for a complete assessment of each patient’s unique airway. This allows our navigation system to track surgical instruments within 1-mm to ensure each procedure meets our high standards of patient care.
Fiagon© Sinus Technology
As one of the consummate innovators in the fields of rhinology and otolaryngology, Dr. Mandel was quick to spot the benefits Fiagon© technology offers. After integrating it into Florida Sinus & Snoring Specialists, we are proud to give our patients industry-leading accuracy and extremely high sinus surgery success rates.
We use a full range of Fiagon© tech in our offices and state-certified Level III surgical suites. All of these tools use direct navigation, which are microsensors built into the instruments that allow them to bend without any loss of data capture. Fiagon© instruments we use include:
- ENT Navigation – multi-screen and multiple instrument capturing
- FlexPointer
- GuideWire
The combination of Dr. Mandel’s experience, talent, and Fiagon’s© state-of-the-art technology allows for the very best in cutting-edge sinus care.
Simplifying The Complex Anatomy Of The Nasal Cavity
Using intraoperative imaging technology, Dr. Mandel takes snapshots before, during, and after surgery to show a full perspective of anatomy and surgical changes in real-time. Such a detailed approach greatly reduces postoperative discomfort (reducing tissue inflammation and excess bleeding), while drastically improving success rates.
