The panel discussion will focus on innovation in spine surgery to improve clinical outcomes. Considering the complex spinal pathology, spine surgeons leverage different technologies and techniques to achieve a safe and efficacious clinical outcome. Researchers and clinicians with a multi-disciplinary background will share their scientific data with all spine specialists.

We expect a lively discussion between spine specialists and interactions with speakers from the panel. The latest developments, ranging from non-invasive treatment of degenerative disc disease to sophisticated ultra MIS intervention techniques for complex pathologies will be addressed.

This event will tackle the following questions:

How will potential technologies overcome preexisting blocks to success? How close are we?
What are the barriers; what are the difficulties that need to be addressed before we see successful early intervention?
