Abstract

A surgical instrument comprises a member defining a first longitudinal axis and being connectable with an image guide via a lock for orientation relative to a sensor to communicate a signal representative of a position of a spinal implant connected with the member. A rod is disposable in a co-axial orientation with the member and is engageable with the spinal implant and rotatable via an actuator to fix the spinal implant with the member. Systems, implants, spinal constructs and methods are disclosed.
