Advancing the Treatment of Spine Fractures
Spine fractures have a debilitating effect on patients, including chronic pain, limited mobility, and reduced quality of life. Performing minimally invasive procedures such as vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, and now, Radiofrequency-Targeted Vertebral Augmentation™ (RF-TVA™) to treat these fractures, physicians are able to positively impact patients’ lives, increasing physical function and mobility, while helping reduce depression and anxiety.1-4
DFINE’s technology and innovation provides a generational advance in the treatment of spine fractures.
