The ClearPoint Array® Platform
SmartFrame Array®: ClearPoint’s Next Generation Frame and Software
Designed to streamline Drug Delivery, Laser Catheter Insertion, and Biopsy procedures – and enable more workflow options
The SmartFrame Array® offers stability and flexibility for neuro navigation, with a highly rigid frame and an “array” of six offset channels to simplify multi-trajectory procedures and entry point adjustments. The Array software provides an intuitive user interface, with options for performing entire procedures in the MRI, or starting in the operating room.
Array is compatible with Surgical Navigation System probes and trackers to facilitate OR-to-MR workflows.
SmartFrame Array® Neuro Navigation Benefits
The ClearPoint Array® Neuro Navigation Software
The Array software is designed to streamline MR-guided trajectory workflows from pre-planning through device insertion. Plan and visualize parallel trajectories with a virtual array tool for improved laser therapy, drug catheter placement and biopsy procedures from a single mounting position.

Initial Clinical Experience With ClearPoint SmartFrame Array–Aided Stereotactic Procedures
Brett Sterk, Birra Taha, Chris Osswald, Robert Bell, Liam Chen, Clark C. Chen
Background
"The ClearPoint SmartFrame Array system consists of a magnetic resonance imaging compatible frame supported by a customized neuro navigation software. This system received U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance for clinical use in January 2021. Our objective was to report initial safety data and user experience of SmartFrame Array – supported stereotactic procedures."
