THE CHALLENGE
Safely reaching target anatomy for precise tissue removal while preserving structural bone.

Hypertrophic SAP neural impingement within foramen

Complete intervertebral access for endplate prep

Dorsal osteophyte impingement during Anterior Cervical
Most spinal procedures share some common themes:
- Tissues that are targeted for removal are often “around corners”
- These tissues are also often proximal to neural anatomy or other visceral structures
- Precise removal of the target tissues without damaging nearby structural anatomy is often difficult to achieve
POWERED PRECISION TECHNOLOGY
The first and only curved at the tip and powered, single-use decompression platform efficient enough to handle bony tissue and precise enough to work safely around spinal anatomy. Dreal’s unique design allows for easier and safer access with less trauma and less costs, resulting in better outcomes for both the patients and the healthcare system.
