Providing the best and most advanced surgical tools doesn't end with implants and instruments. Medtronic Sofamor Danek is committed to bringing the spine surgeon the most innovative and technologically superior internet tools. With the creation of MySpineTools.com, Medtronic Sofamor Danek has taken the leap into the web-based future with on-line education, surgical techniques, medical forums and patient outreach. Through MySpineTools.com, Medtronic Sofamor Danek offers surgeons the tools to manage their own website, complete with patient information on spinal disorders, spinal anatomy, treatment options, new technologies and a spinal glossary. MySpineTools.com is the spine surgeon's home page for new technology and product updates. It's the newest tool no spine surgeon should be without.

Medtronic Sofamor Danek, in conjunction with doctors who primarily treat only scoliosis patients, has created iScoliosis.com as part of the multifaceted Check Your Child public education and awareness campaign. The Check Your Child program is designed to provide parents and children with reliable medical information about scoliosis. The iScoliosis.com website was designed for people who either have scoliosis, or parents and caregivers who suspect that scoliosis is present in their child. This comprehensive online resource covers all the pertinent aspects of scoliosis and the current treatments for this spinal disorder.

NeckSurgery.com is the second in the series of patient-focused websites produced by Medtronic Sofamor Danek. NeckSurgery.com contains comprehensive material concerning cervical disorders and offers the opportunity for physicians to give their patients an online resource tool.

Back.com is the third patient-focused website to be produced by Medtronic Sofamor Danek. In contrast to iScoliosis.com and NeckSurgery.com, this website contains comprehensive material concerning disorders of the lower back (thoracic and lumbar region) and offers physicians yet another opportunity to give their patients online resource tools. In February 2003, Back.com earned the Good Housekeeping Web Site Certification Seal for its commitment to educating the public about back pain.
