What is BoneScalpel?
BoneScalpel is an ultrasonic bone cutting system designed to provide surgeons with greater control, precision and efficiency during osteotomies and other bone procedures. It cuts through bone while largely sparing surrounding elastic soft tissue.
How does BoneScalpel work?
BoneScalpel uses ultrasonic technology to amplify electrical signals into a high-speed back-and-forth motion of a blunt blade. This allows it to cut efficiently through crystalline bone while leaving elastic soft tissues largely unaffected.
What are the key benefits of BoneScalpel?
The key benefits highlighted by Bioventus Surgical are power, bone preservation and safety. The system is designed to support challenging osteotomies, preserve healthy bone through a thin kerf, and provide tissue-sparing effects near vital structures.
How does BoneScalpel help protect soft tissue?
The device uses non-rotational linear movement, which provides tissue-sparing effects. This helps users work with greater confidence around critical anatomical structures.
Can BoneScalpel help preserve bone?
Yes. According to the product page, its thin kerf supports precise cuts while preserving healthy bone and may help preserve a greater percentage of autograft bone compared with standard techniques.
What procedures is BoneScalpel designed for?
The page positions BoneScalpel for osteotomies and bone cutting procedures where control, precision and protection of nearby structures are important.
Does BoneScalpel support procedural efficiency?
Yes. Bioventus Surgical states that the speed of the device can help maintain short operative times while improving procedural efficiency.
