AVAmax Cadaver Lab
Performing Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty

Choice means doctors can select the right approach for each patient at point of care. No two spinal fractures are alike and you don’t always know before the point of care whether vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty will be the right approach for a particular fracture. The AVAmax system gives you the flexibility to choose either procedure without changing your delivery system. The AVAmax Vertebral Balloon represents a competitive breakthrough and is expected to enhance the affordability of spinal fracture procedures. CareFusion's vertebral balloon product and related components cost up to 40 percent less than similar kyphoplasty products on the market today, making the procedure more cost effective and accessible to hospitals and outpatient surgery centers.

This workshop combines lecture with hands-on clinical based teaching using cadavers and fluoroscopy.
