Virtu Surgical has reinvented surgical robotics with the creation of a compact and precise surgical robotic system. This system provides tactile feedback to the surgeon’s hand as well as new previously unavailable surgical movements. It also will prove effective in new surgical fields beyond hysterectomy and prostatectomy. Because of its compact size and lower price point, this system is the perfect candidate to make robotic surgery both accessible and affordable for mid-size clinics and mid-income countries. They have started bench and tissues tests and expect to complete animal model in 2017.
