Surgical robots are gaining widespread acceptance across the globe as they enhance the surgeon's abilities in terms of surgical imaging, navigation, planning and instrument manipulation.
An observational study from UCLA’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer comparing robotic-assisted prostate surgery to open surgery for prostate cancer found that patients who had robotic surgery had fewer instances of cancer cells at the edge of the surgical specimen, or fewer positive margins, and less need of additional cancer treatments, such as hormone therapy or radiation, than patients who had open surgery.
Stereotaxis, Inc. announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with Medix Japan, Inc. and Hokushin Medical Co. Ltd. to distribute its Niobe® Magnetic Navigation System for cardiac ablations in Japan.
