Dr. Matthew Kroh and Dr. Andrew Strong have pioneered the use of the MARS system by Levita Magnetics in the world's first commercial cases at Cleveland Clinic following its FDA approval. MARS, standing at the forefront of surgical innovation, aims to redefine abdominal procedures with its user-centric design. As Dr. Kroh notes, its impact resonates with healthcare institutions, surgeons, and, notably, patients. What makes MARS unique? It employs a blend of magnets and mechanical systems to reduce incision sizes while granting surgeons meticulous control in laparoscopic operations. The benefits are manifold: quicker recovery, diminished pain, and less scarring, with a reduced reliance on additional surgical assistance. Leveraging Levita's Dynamic Magnetic Positioning technology, MARS adapts to a range of surgeries, from bariatric to colorectal, fitting effortlessly into existing operating rooms across the globe. Levita Magnetics' CEO, Dr. Alberto Rodriguez-Navarro, sees a transformative horizon, stating, "We are leading a significant shift in high-volume minimally invasive abdominal surgery." MARS has the power to empower surgeons, enhance patient outcomes, and reduce incisions—a remarkable advancement in surgical robotics! #MARSRobot #SurgeryInnovation #MinimallyInvasiveSurgery #FutureOfHealthcare #Healthcare For more details, you can read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/g7TchGTm

🌟 Curious about the Origins of MaxFi?🌟 MaxFi, led by Joss Fernandez, is transforming the field of hyper-realistic surgical simulations. Dr. Fernandez, a highly experienced surgeon triple-boarded in cardiothoracic, vascular, and general surgery, brings a wealth of expertise from Boone Health in Columbia, Missouri.   MaxFi was established in November 2014 following innovative cadaver perfusion techniques deployed by Dr. Ed Garrett Jr. After an initial phase of conceptualization, the company gained significant traction in 2016-2017 when Dr. Fernandez conducted groundbreaking experiments using pig hearts, providing initial validation following years of development.   Dr. Fernandez further validated his techniques with cadaver dogs, overcoming considerable challenges in tissue perfusion, resulting in several patented technologies. Between 2018-2020, MaxFi expanded its operations and began collaborations with pre-eminent entities in the military such as the Air Force Parajumper special forces.    In response to the pandemic, MaxFi adapted and emerged in 2021 as a respected simulation company, strategically shifting towards service provision. The appointment of Robert G. Mills as CEO in 2023 marked a significant milestone, propelling MaxFi into a commercialization-ready enterprise. From the humble beginnings of a garage, we are crafting a story of greatness in surgical simulation technology. Join us as we continue to innovate and shape the future of surgical simulations! 🚀   #Innovation #Surgery #Healthcare #Medicine #MedicalTechnology

It is the most prevalent subtype of OA in the Netherlands. In treating end-stage knee OA, the knee joint can be replaced with an artificial joint, known as total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Over the last decades, computer technology has been developed for surgical planning to improve the accuracy and precision of component alignment, also called computerassisted surgery (CAS). CAS for TKA can be classified into three types: CAS navigation, patient-specific instrumentation (PSI), and robotic devices Supervisor: Prof. dr. L.W. van Rhijn Co-supervisors: Dr. N.P.
