The start of coronavirus pandemic pushed limits of healthcare systems all over the world by causing thousands of deaths and the requirement of a huge quantity of healthcare resources. When WHO declared COVID19 as a pandemic, the whole world came to standstill. Half of the world population is confined to their home except for essential services. In the year 2016, when GOI announced ...
Micromate™ Case Report series presents real cases performed by the physicians currently using our full-fledged robotic platform for percutaneous procedures. Today, we join Dr. Alexander Kupferthaler, Interventional Radiologist at the Ordensklinikum Linz – Barmherzige Schwestern, for a robot-guided bone biopsy. Clinical Context 65-year-old female with invasive lobular carcinoma of ...
Interventional Systems is proud to announce the signature of a strategic collaboration agreement with the Johns Hopkins University’s Whiting School of Engineering for the development of novel solutions to enhance the accuracy of robotic-assisted percutaneous procedures. The research team, led by Professor Axel Krieger and Lidia Al-Zogbi, will not only ...
Jian Zhang: Technology has always been a vital ally for healthcare. From diagnostic capabilities finding disease earlier to therapies that increase the quality of care, improve clinical efficiency, and lower cost. But healthcare has been slow to adopt technology because innovation can be long, incremental, and path-dependent. This is especially true when examining investment in research and ...
Robotic surgery pioneer Intuitive Surgical celebrated a big milestone this week: The number of robotic-assisted procedures performed worldwide using the da Vinci surgical system has just surpassed 10 million. ...

This week I am talking to Adam Sachs (@AdamSachsVS), CEO and Co-Founder of Vicarious Surgical (@vicarioussurg) a company that is rethinking surgery. Adam is a mechanical engineer by training who studied at MIT focusing on biomedical engineering and robotics. This is where he met his co-founders Sammy Khalifa, Dr. Barry Green. They came together to solve some fundamental challenges with ...
Because we frequently get the question, you know, ‘how can you do robotics in a surgery center?’, because the reimbursement in the surgery center is much lower. ...
Technology continues to evolve every day. In the near-term future, portable and easily deployable robots will allow surgeons all over the world to perform minimally invasive surgery in an increasing number of procedure types and become even more effective surgeons. To achieve our goal of having a future surgeon workforce that meets the demands of an aging population and delivers good patient ...
Our Value-Based Robotics series advances towards the actual clinical use of robotics and issues concerning practicality and surgeon onboarding and training. It is generally accepted that robotic surgical systems enable minimally invasive surgery and improve outcomes, including shorter recovery times, less scarring, and reduced healthcare costs. This being said, the jury is still out on whether ...
BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE:The Zap-X system (Zap Surgical Systems Inc, SanCarlos, California) is a radically new surgical robot designed for brain and head and neckradiosurgery. It represents the first new dedicated brain stereotactic radiosurgery platformin almost half a century optimizing the goals of safety, speed, and accuracy. The Zap-Xsystem was used in a required Chinese National Medical ...
The robot arms move above the patient’s stomach as if guided by an invisible hand. Monitors on each side of the operating table show an oversized, 3-D image of the stomach’s interior. Two meters (about six feet) away, Dr. Markus Mille sits fully absorbed at the control ...
The Healthcare industry is one of India’s rapidly growing and largest sectors contributing approximately 60% of the industry’s total revenue. ...
Forbes recently featured Auris in an article about Johnson & Johnson's $3.5 billion all-cash acquisition of the company. In the deal, Auris is also eligible to receive up to $2.35 billion in additional milestone payments. This deal will boost J&J's plan to expand its robotics program. Auris was joined in 2007 by one of the pioneers of the robotic surgery, Dr. Fred Moll and since then ...
Abstract Background The Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology (SPORT) Surgical System by Titan Medical Inc. is designed to overcome the inherent challenges of minimally invasive single-access procedures. The aim of this preclinical study was to evaluate the feasibility of various digestive surgery procedures using this novel surgical robotic platform. Methods A total of 12 minimally invasive ...
Abstract Minimally Invasive Single Site (MISS) surgery is a better terminology to explain the novel concept of scarless surgery, which is increasingly making its way into clinical practice. But. there are some difficulties. We review the existing technologies for MISS surgery with regards to single-port devices, endoscope and camera, instruments, retractors and also the future perspectives for ...
Arsenia Georgopoulos first began her journey at EpiFinder this May as a summer business intern. Traveling all the way from Youngstown, Ohio, Arsenia is our first out-of-state team member and intern. Now that her summer break is coming to a close, she plans to head back to Ohio. There, she’ll begin her junior year at The College of Wooster, majoring in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I ...
A fibre-optic probe can detect errant cancer cells within healthy tissue during brain tumour surgery with close to 100 per cent accuracy and sensitivity, reducing the risk of recurrence and thereby increasing a patient’s survival time, say the Canadian researchers who developed the device. ...
