Aliso Viejo, CA, Feb. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OrthAlign, Inc., a leading provider of orthopedic surgical navigation solutions, is proud to announce a clinical milestone with 75,000 navigation-assisted joint replacement surgeries. OrthAlign’s hand-held sensor-based technologies support a wide array of indications including total knee replacement, partial knee replacement and total hip replacement. The company’s flagship application, KneeAlign® for total knee replacement, provides both tibial and femoral intra-operative navigation in a simple, palm-sized, single-use device.
