I like my cutting guides; do I have to use Intellijoint specific guides?
You can use your preferred cutting guides with Intellijoint KNEE, but we do provide both an adjustable cutting guide and a mono-block cutting guide as options.
Do I need a CT scan or additional imaging for the Intellijoint KNEE system?
No. There is no imaging needed. The system is registered to the patient through anatomical landmarks including the hip center of rotation, removing the need for an intramedullary (IM) rod.
Are the pins placed outside the surgical incision?
No. Intellijoint KNEE is a pinless system and does not require pins placed outside of your regular incision.
Do I have to purchase Intellijoint Surgical’s implants to use the system?
No, surgeons can continue to use their implants of choice. Intellijoint Surgical does not sell implants.
