SANTIAGO (Reuters) - A robot that uses powerful magnets to perform less invasive and more efficient surgeries completed its first international proced.
The FDA cleared Levita Magnetics’ new abdominal surgery platform, which combines the company’s proprietary magnetic surgical technology with robotic assistance. The system is designed to deliver all the same patient benefits as its original magnetic surgery system such as reduced incisions, less pain, fewer scars and speedier recovery while also giving surgeons better control of their instruments.
