Disruptive technology:
01
Fully robotic
The manipulation of three endovascular intstruments simultaneously allows the entire procedure to be performed robotically.
02
Teleoperated
The endovascular procedure can be performed from a different room or hospital.
03
Haptic feedback
Physicians can feel the catheter and guidewire just as if they were standing near the patient
04
Universal compatibility
A variety of dedicated catheters and guidewires are compatible, with no dependence on the manufacturer
05
Precise manipulation
Accurate, submillimetric instrument positioning and stent placement
06
Ergonomic workplace
Allows physicians to fully concentrate on an ongoing case without the use of heavy lead aprons
07
No additional training is needed
Physicians interface with the robot is via the same endovascular instruments as in a manual procedure
08
Occupational hazards free
Medical personnel are not exposed to hazardous X-rays
Future
