Introducing the AI-Powered Robotic compatible O-ARM with Stealth Navigation – For the First Time in Chennai

At Kauvery Hospital, we’re bringing in something that’s changing the game in the operating room — the O-ARM with Stealth Navigation. It’s not just new tech; it’s a smarter way to handle spine and brain surgeries. By combining artificial intelligence with real-time, 3D imaging, this system gives our surgeons the kind of precision that simply wasn’t possible before.

Picture it like this — you’re driving through unfamiliar terrain. You could use a basic map, or you could switch to a live GPS with satellite view, guiding your every turn. That’s what O-ARM does for surgery. It gives our team a complete, AI-powered real-time view — helping them move confidently and act precisely.

So, what is the O-ARM, really? 

At its core, it’s a next-gen CT scanner inside the operating theatre— but it doesn’t just take pictures. It works live, during surgery, creating detailed 3D visuals of the brain or spine. This lets the surgeon know exactly where everything is, moment by moment. No guesswork. Just clarity.

What does this mean for you? 

Here’s how this tech actually makes a difference during surgery:

• Seeing Clearly in 3D: Surgeons aren’t relying on flat images anymore. The system shows them every layer of the anatomy in three dimensions, as it exists in that moment.
• Smarter Movements, Thanks to AI: Surgical tools, aided by systems with robotic compatibility, move with astonishing accuracy. Each step — from placing a screw to making a cut — is tracked and guided.
• Less Invasive = Faster Recovery: Because of the tech’s precision, the incisions can be much smaller. That usually means less pain, quicker healing, and fewer days in the hospital.
• Lower Risk of Complications: Better visibility helps avoid unintended damage. The chances of something going wrong drop significantly.
• Fewer Do-Overs: When things go right the first time, patients avoid follow-up surgeries. That means more peace of mind in the long run.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the O-ARM and how can it help during surgery?

The O-ARM is a live 3D imaging system used during surgery. It gives surgeons a detailed, real-time view of the brain or spine, helping them operate with more accuracy and safety.

Who can benefit from this technology?

Patients needing spine surgeries (like slipped discs or scoliosis) or brain procedures (like tumour removals or trauma surgeries) can benefit. It’s especially helpful for complex or delicate cases.

Will the surgery be less painful with this system?

Yes. Because the O-ARM allows for precise, minimally invasive surgery, most patients experience smaller cuts, less pain, and quicker recovery times.

Is this available anywhere else in Chennai?

Kauvery Hospital, Alwarpet, is the first in Chennai to offer O-ARM with Stealth Navigation — a big leap forward in surgical care.

How does this technology reduce surgical risks?

It eliminates guesswork during surgery by giving real-time, AI-powered visuals. This means fewer complications, fewer follow-up surgeries, and safer outcomes.

What kind of care can I expect at Kauvery?

At Kauvery, you’ll receive advanced surgical treatment backed by compassionate care, personalized plans, and a dedicated recovery support team.
