Value Propositions
Key Features of C-True Navigation Technology
Marker-less
A fully non-invasive navigation technology with no need for the attachment of invasive markers to the patient’s anatomy
Miniaturised Navigation
A less than 1 kg handheld device without the need to alter the OR setting or place any large camera consoles in the room
Fully Automated
No intra-operative calibration is required, which means no added step or time to the routine surgical procedure
Reduced Costs
An affordable and cost-effective medical device innovation
Instant Registration
Reduced registration time from 15-30 minutes to less than 10 seconds
C-True Technology
The C-True navigation is an all-in-one compact handheld device that is used in combination with our exclusive AR software, preoperative planning software, and navigation software
Hand-held Sterilisable Device
Augmented Reality Software
Preoperative Planning Software
AI-powered Navigation Software
C-True Hand-held Sterilisable Device
The C-True navigation is an all-in-one compact handheld device without any need for extra accessories and markers. The camera casing is sterilisable and manufactured of medical-grade material.
C-True Augmented Reality Heads-up Display
The C-True navigation system features a heads-up AR display, eliminating the need for the surgeon to repeatedly shift focus between the operating site and the screen. This leads to a reduction of unnecessary cognitive challenges and reduces the chance of intraoperative errors.
C-True Preoperative Planning Software
The C-True preoperative preplanning software allows 3D surgical planning using 3D models of the patient's anatomy generated from the patient’s CT scan. This enables surgeons to have a more comprehensive understanding of each patient’s anatomy, which translates to a clearer surgical strategy for the implant type, size, and optimal position.
C-True AI-powered Navigation Software
C-True has developed an advanced AI-powered registration algorithm that allows surgeons to accurately translate preoperative planning into the operating room and guide the surgical tool into the correct position for optimal implant placement.
Pre-clinical Validation of C-True
Navigation Technology
Human Cadaveric Tests
The performance and usability of the C-True Navigation System has been validated on real human tissue during simulated surgical scenarios
C-True in Action
An overview of using the C-True Navigation System in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Accuracy of C-True Navigation
According to the performed pre-clinical tests on human bone models, the translational accuracy (offset) of implant placement using C-True navigation is within 1.5 mm of the planned position
System Accuracy (translation)
System Accuracy (rotation)
According to the performed pre-clinical tests on human bone models, the rotational accuracy (version and inclination) of implant placement using C-True navigation is within 2 degree of the planned angle
NEWS & UPDATES
C-True has successfully completed human cadaveric usability and performance tests
February 2024
The outcomes of these tests demonstrated the functionality of the navigation system both on real human tissue and in simulated surgical scenarios.

The second round of data collection for re-training the C-True AI network was completed
March 2023
In this data collection round, 1.2 TB of data was collected from different donors with anatomical variation during a human cadaveric study. These data will be used to generate tagged data and further enhance the robustness of the C-True exclusive AI network.
C-True was awarded a translation grant from NIHR
April 2023
C-True was awarded a £42,200 translation grant from NIHR to perform further pre-clinical validation tests and to move the technology closer to clinical practice.
