Chad Weber, DO, of Dayton, Ohio-based Orthopedic Associates, performed the hospital’s first robotic-assisted surgery, according to a Feb. 28 LinkedIn post.

The Mako SmartRobotics system uses a CT scan to create a patient-specific 3D model, which surgeons can then use to create a personalized surgical plan for joint replacement patients.

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.
