Corindus Vascular Robotics, a leading provider of precision medical robotics, today announced the launch of its CorPath One Stent Program. The goal of the program is to raise awareness of the potential to decrease longitudinal geographic miss (LGM) caused by sub-optimal stent placement, as well as the patient safety and financial benefits that can result from using the CorPath Vascular Robotic System to place just one stent per lesion in coronary angioplasty procedures.
Imagine the obstacles a blind person who relies on sound will face if he loses his hearing as he ages. Or the difficulty a long-term wheelchair user will confront as she develops arthritis in her shoulders with age.
Four University of Wyoming professors have developed an Electrical and Computer Engineering High Performance Cluster (ECE-HPC) -- on which they have created computing applications ranging from directing rescue robots through burning buildings to allowing physical therapists to monitor their patients’ recovery in real time and from remote locations.
Hansen Medical, Inc., a global leader in intravascular robotics, today announced that Dr. Barry Katzen, founder and Medical Director of Baptist Cardiac & Vascular Institute (Baptist Hospital of Miami), is scheduled to utilize the Magellan™ Robotic System in a live endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) case at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) conference in the Main Arena II at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California on Wednesday, October 30th at 2:30 PM ET.
Providing surgical robots with a new kind of machine intelligence that significantly extends their capabilities and makes them much easier and more intuitive for surgeons to operate is the goal of a major new grant announced as part of the National Robotics Initiative.
For most healthy bipeds, the act of walking is seldom given a second thought: One foot follows the other, and the rest of the body falls in line, supported by a system of muscle, tendon, and bones.
Robots enhance mobility for visually and physically impaired, improve treatment for atrial fibrillation
Robotic rotorcraft for inspecting bridges and other infrastructure, tools for minimally invasive surgery that guide surgeons by creating 3D maps of internal organs and assistive robots for blind travelers are among seven new Carnegie Mellon University research projects sponsored through the National Robotics Initiative.
Robert M Wenzel, Director of London Global Laboratories, has designed and developed the AutoMate® 2500 Series software innovation for Beckman Coulter, world-leading manufacturer of biomedical laboratory instruments. Wenzel is a specialist in medical laboratory automation and drew from over 15 years of experience in software development, machine learning, and intelligent pattern recognition in designing the software for this successful robotics system.
Corindus Vascular Robotics, the leader in precision vascular robotics, will showcase its FDA-approved CorPath System at the upcoming Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) 2013 annual meeting, Oct. 27 – Nov. 1 in San Francisco, CA.
