Because of its unparalleled accuracy, versatility, and quality assurance, the CRW™ system is the world's premier stereotactic system. The CRW™ system can be configured as a basic CT-only system, a CT/MR scanner-dependent system, or a high-level CT/MR scanner-independent system with the quality assurance of a phantom base.

Unlimited Versatility

The CRW™ stereotactic system enables the widest choice of targets, entry points, and path approaches. Its target-centered arc principle means that all arc paths pass to the target. With the CRW™ system, all approaches are easily achieved, including transsphenoidal, full lateral, posterior fossa and standard approaches.

Ultimate Accuracy

Every component of the CRW™ stereotactic system is designed to contribute to unparalleled accuracy. Two thumb lock screws to secure coordinate settings, vernier scaling at target and trajectory settings, double bolt fixation of the head ring to the Mayfield adaptor, and a solid frame constructed of aluminum alloy each contribute to its accuracy. The sum of these features amounts to a frame that is perfectly suited to inspire confidence in accuracy -- especially important for its application in functional neurosurgery.

Complete Sterile Draping

Because the head ring is separate from the arc, the CRW™ system offers a major advantage in sterile draping. The placement of the sterile arc on the head ring in the operating room allows continued sterility and exposure of the AP and LAT scales. The result is the ability to change target settings and retractor positions without a compromise to sterility.

In addition, Radionics provides the Apuzzo sterile drape to ensure ease in draping the arc system.
