Aurora-based University of Colorado Medicine opened the CU Medicine Regenerative Medicine, Hand and Spine Center in Englewood.
The center features two procedrue areas, recovery spaces and an onsite regenerative medicine laboratory, according to an April 4 news release. It focuses on minimally invasive treatments for joint, spine and nerve conditions.
"Our highly experienced physicians are pioneering surgical approaches, such as performing arthroscopic surgery without general anesthesia using cameras the size of a blood draw needle," Jason Dragoo, MD, the center's medical director said in the release. "We offer the latest FDA-approved biologics designed to stimulate the body's natural ability to repair and heal itself, and our onsite lab enables us to create new, even more efficient biologics by analyzing gene products from our patients' healthy and diseased tissues."
