Dear CAOS Investigators and Users:

I would like to personally extend an invitation to all potential attendees and participants to attend the 13th
meeting of the International Society for Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery.

This meeting will be held June 13-15, 2013 at the Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista Hotel and Conference
Center in Orlando, Florida.

The key opinion leaders in the field of surgical navigation, robotics, and other new surgical enhancement
technologies will be there from North America and around the world. We will be introducing a strong and
diverse North American faculty to compliment the International faculty to enhance the educational program.

For this years meeting, a CAOS North America Pre-Course Symposium "Technological Advances in Orthopaedic Surgery" 
will be available to all CAOS attendees on June 12th.

I look forward to welcoming you to Orlando in June 2013 and anticipate a meeting that will be enlightening,
rewarding, and enjoyable for all who attend.

Learning Objectives:

• Educate and demonstrate on a personal level the need for improved surgical accuracy in Orthopaedic Surgery and the new technologies currently available to meet that need.
• Offer attendees an opportunity to perform enhanced procedures using the newest and most technologically advanced surgical tools now in the industry.
• Measure, record, and report improvements when performing surgical tasks on a personal and collective level using new and innovative tools.
• Survey the participating surgeons to critically evaluate the latest technologically sophisticated tools and methods to determine the value and potential for clinical acceptance.
• Learn from panel discussions, presentations, and debates from key innovators, authors, proponents, and detractors of these technologies.

On behalf of the International Society for Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS), I would like to personally extend an invitation to our industry partners to participate in the 13th meeting of the International Society for Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery being held June 13-15, 2013, in Orlando, FL.

The key opinion leaders in the field of surgical navigation, robotics, and other new surgical enhancement technologies will be there from North America and around the world. We will be introducing a strong and diverse North American faculty to compliment the International faculty to enhance the educational program.

To insure the success of the marketing program, CAOS 2013 is being fully supported by ICJR (International Congress for Joint Replacement) and its management and marketing team.

Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery has been around for 15 years and robotics even longer. The need for improved surgical accuracy in orthopaedics remains paramount. Registry data, outcome studies, retrieval studies, and large population studies clearly demonstrate the absolute need for these technologies to advance. This meeting is the best venue to introduce and advance these new innovative enabling technologies in robotics; new improvements in classic optical navigation, and other potentially game changing technologies such as custom implant and shape fitting instruments.

This year, the meeting will be held at the Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista Hotel and Conference Center. This venue, meeting dates, and the educational program is set specifically to provide the absolute best opportunity for attendees to test drive the newest technologies, discuss the potential benefits with experts, personally evaluate the technologies potential strengths and weaknesses, and hear major advocates and detractors debate the usefulness and cost effectiveness of the new technologic advances presented.

The successful preceding meetings in Davos, Santa Fe, Marbella, Chicago, Helsinki, Heidelberg, Montreal, Hong Kong, Boston, Paris, London, and Seoul have set a high standard of quality educational content. The initial estimates for attendance for this meeting due to the location, marketing strategy, timing, economy, and ease of transportation is anticipated to be the largest attendance in CAOS International history.

I look forward to welcoming you to Orlando in June 2013 and anticipate a meeting that will be enlightening, rewarding, and enjoyable for all who attend.
