"Surgical Innovation: The PL300B Advantage 🚀 The PL300B Surgical Navigation System is changing the face of spinal surgery. Its efficient pre-op planning and robotic arm guidance ensure precise navigation, while its submillimeter accuracy is especially advantageous for high-risk and complex procedures. This innovation reduces surgical risks, improves outcomes, and is a game-changer in the medical field. Experience the future of surgical navigation with PL300B.

Really pleased & proud to have published the VOLCANO trial in Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, showing that open console robotic surgery reduces surgeon ergonomic risk during major colorectal resection. This is the first randomised controlled trial of open console robotic ergonomics (using CMR Surgical's #Versius system) and the first RCT from our research group at Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. Hopefully first of many more to come... Read the paper here: https://lnkd.in/e3HVe22d Headline findings: 🚶♀️Lower ergonomic risk (physical strain) 🤯 Lower cognitive strain 🗣 No impact on team communication 👩⚕️ No impact on patient outcomes or op times

I had the opportunity to discuss the advantages of robotic surgery and the possible benefits for patients. #roboticsurgery #generalsurgery #surgicaltechnology

PRESBYOPIA: At the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons event in Vienna, Dr. Eric Donnenfeld of OCLI VISION delves into the promising advancements in intraocular lenses used in cataract surgery. At the forefront of this innovation is the correction of presbyopia, potentially eliminating the need for glasses at both near and far distances. Explore the latest lens technologies unveiled in Vienna that offer clear distance and reading vision without the drawbacks of previous lenses like glaring and halos. With these innovations, Dr. Donnenfeld envisions a future where glasses become a choice rather than a necessity. Dive in to see the future of eye care.

Preview 2 Testing our #3Dprinted patient-specific thoracic #aorta with #aorticvalve. Part of the #simulator we will introduce at EACTS - European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery in #Vienna. Our simulator will support simulations for various procedures—from aortic replacement, repair, Bentall, David to elephant trunk and beyond, through sternotomy, mini-sternotomy, robotic and the endoscopic approach. Here we look aorta, the supporting structures used to 3D print and at valve from below. During 7 simulation lab that we will run in Vienna we'll be unveiling our #simulator. Please note that spaces are limited, and registration through EACTS is essential. #aorticvalve #medicalinnovation #3dprinting #simulationtraining #aorta

Shining a Light on Surgical Precision: Why Synthetic Sapphire is a Revolutionary material for Endoscopy In the delicate world of minimally invasive surgery, every tool plays a crucial role. Among these, the endoscope reigns supreme, offering a surgeon's eye view into the body's hidden landscapes. But what makes a truly exceptional endoscope? Enter synthetic sapphire, a material gleaming with potential. This translucent wonder isn't just a pretty face; its exceptional properties make it a shining star in the surgical arena. Synthetic sapphire is the gemstone of endoscopic applications because of its Unparalleled Clarity, Strength under Scrutiny and Sterilization Ruggedness. Learn more about sapphires benefits here: https://buff.ly/3Un3vn8 So, the next time you hear "endoscope," remember the silent hero within – synthetic sapphire. This gemstone of modern medicine is not just a material, it's a testament to human ingenuity, guiding surgeons towards a brighter future of minimally invasive care. #MedicalTechnology #Endoscopy #SyntheticSapphire #Innovation #SurgicalPrecision

June is #HerniaAwarenessMonth. Hernias of the abdominal wall, ventral hernia and of the groin Two of the most commonly repaired hernias are ventral hernias and inguinal hernias. Robotic-assisted surgery using the da Vinci 5 System allows surgeons such as Dr Michael Corneille to use minimally invasive techniques to achieve greater precision, smaller incisions, and a quicker recovery for his patients. Learn more about hernias and how our surgeons like Dr. Corneille repair them at https://lnkd.in/gexUV4CV
