Brainlab® offers integrated cranial navigation software for neurosurgeons that enhances functionality by allowing seamless viewing through microscopes. The system features passive markers for positional tracking and ergonomic orientation, along with live integration of CT or MR datasets on navigation screens. Additionally, it supports motorized microscopes for automatic alignment and efficient workflow, ensuring critical information is readily available during procedures.

1. MAXIMIZED
VISION
Seamless viewing. Increased functionality. Brainlab® makes
navigation easy with pre-planned objects injected into the
microscope ocular.
Brainlab ® Cranial Navigation Software with Microscope Integration
Recognizing that neurosurgeons perform most of their procedures while looking through a microscope and not the navigation
screen, Brainlab® Cranial Navigation Software supports all major neurosurgery microscopes with improved image integration.
Passive markers attached to the microscope enable positional tracking, allowing for ergonomic position orientation, as well as
Autofocus on the navigated tool.

2. Microscope Integration Menu
DISPLAY OPTIONS
Brainlab® Microscope Integration offers unique navigation features. Microscope Depthview is a reconstruction of original CT or
MR datasets in the surgeon’s angle of view on the neuronavigation system screen. On-screen video overlays show all of the
information visible through the ocular—anatomy and injected objects—directly on the navigation screen. The Heads-Up Display
also provides critical fiber tracking information in 2D or 3D.
VIEWS AND CONTROLS
Brainlab® Microscope Integration offers ergonomic viewing when switching between live and pre-operative anatomical images.
When the shutter is closing, a select part of the navigation screen is shown in the microscope. Neurosurgeons have remote
control access to the navigation software through the microscope’s handle control buttons, ensuring more efficient workflows.
MOTORIZED ALIGNMENT
Brainlab® supports all motorized microscopes with automatic alignment to any navigated instrument. The microscope head
moves autonomously in X/Y direction—starting at any position until it reaches its new position—with center and focus on the
navigated tool. Any focus point may also be stored for automatic re-positioning of the microscope’s viewing angle.
