Fusion Standard Instrument Set for Image-Guided Surgery
The Fusion Standard Instrument Set for image-guided surgery: Six reusable standard ENT instruments and tray
Each Fusion™ system for image-guided surgery comes with a set of 6 reusable, standard instruments, which mirrors the instrument set you would use for ENT surgery without navigation:
- Registration Probe
- Curved Suction, 90°
- Curved Suction, 70°
- Straight Suction
- Straight Probe (defaults to trajectory view)
- Ostium Seeker
The Fusion system is the first and only ENT image-guided surgery system that provides navigation instruments with the same look and feel as your standard ENT instruments. A custom instrument tray is also included.
Instrument Innovation
Our pioneering ENT instrumentation offers numerous benefits, including:
- Auto-recognition and seamless verification of instruments
- HeadTracker with integrated TouchPad
- Multi-instrument tracking with up to 3 instruments at once
Note: This is only available as a set in the US. If you are outside the US, the items in this set must be ordered individually.
Fusion Supplemental Instrument Set for Image-Guided Surgery
Innovative instruments for image-guided surgery with the Fusion ENT Navigation System
The new Supplemental Instrument Set features innovative designs that enable better visibility and ease of use during a broad variety of image-guided surgical procedures and techniques. This optional, reusable set works with our Fusion™ ENT Navigation System for image-guided surgery and includes:
- Frontal Suctions, 45° and 90° – The much-anticipated new frontal suctions provide a defined localization point at the instrument tip with unique features to aid in navigation and dissection during image-guided surgery.
- Small Straight Suction – This instrument is ideal for navigating the confined spaces of the paranasal sinuses in the pediatric patient. It may also be used in sinus and temporal bone procedures where a standard size straight suction is too large.
- Suction Curettes, 45° and 90° – Based on a highly successful MicroFrance® instrument, the unique beveled tip of these curettes is designed to aid in suction and dissection along the skull base.
- Elevator – Our latest elevator enables precise localization of the angled tip without obstructing line of sight. With a more ergonomic feel, this annulus- or “gimmick”-style elevator offers comfortable fingertip control while working under the confines of a microscope.
- Standard Registration Probe and Head Frame Kit (not pictured)

StealthMerge and DICOM Q/R
StealthMerge ENT software for image-guided surgery
StealthMerge ENT Software for Image-Guided Surgery
StealthMerge™ ENT is an optional image registration software available for image-guided surgery with the Fusion™ system. This powerful software gives you access to more information from multiple sources for enhanced tissue differentiation during image-guided surgery. It automatically merges image data from CT, CTA, MR, and MRA exams. Using our exclusive 3D matching algorithms, StealthMerge ENT precisely correlates these numerous patient data sets.
DICOM Query/Retrieve Software for Image-Guided Surgery
DICOM query/retrieve software for image-guided surgery puts patient data at your fingertips.
