The da Vinci System is a surgeon’s console which is placed near the patient (usually in the same room) and has a patient-side cart attached, equipped with a number of robotic arms which can be operated from the main console. These are adapted to use surgical tools such as scalpels, graspers or bovies, as well as scissors, with one of the arms designed to operate a 3D camera.

Ion Endoluminal System

Created to be used for minimally invasive lung biopsies, the Ion Endoluminal System is a robotic-assisted platform. It is equipped with a 3.5mm robotic catheter, enabling expert navigation when inserted into the patient’s peripheral lung, allowing the clinician to reach every segment of the lung, and peerless vision can be achieved using a peripheral probe. The catheter can be locked into place, enhancing control, visibility, and stability.
