Cutting Edge Technologies
Since 2016, Mr Patel has used Standing CT scans to meticulously delineate patients’ anatomy. These scans, captured in weight-bearing positions, offer a unique advantage in identifying issues that might escape detection on traditional x-rays or or when lying down.
For ankle replacements, Mr Patel adopts a specialised approach utilising patient-specific instrumentation during surgical procedures. Cutting guides are meticulously crafted based on each patient’s unique scan anatomy well ahead of the surgery. This tailored approach optimises surgical precision and facilitates optimal component positioning, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
