The robot allows surgeons to perform less invasive procedures with higher accuracy by creating a 3D scan that is individualized for each patient. 

Surgeons can be more precise with the system, as the robot helps reduce human error. The platform leads to better outcomes by helping the surgeon execute the preoperative plan.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
