Beschrijving

Ever wondered how surgical robots evolved from early experiments to the highly advanced systems used in hospitals today?

Join us for a fascinating journey through the history, innovation, and future of robotic surgery and discover how Intuitive helped turn a bold idea into a global medical breakthrough.

We’ll explore how robotic surgery transformed from a visionary concept into a commonly used tool during operations and how continuous progress in engineering, design, and data technology has enhanced precision, safety, and patient outcomes.

Expect insights on:
The milestones that shaped the evolution of robotic-assisted surgery
How Intuitive’s da Vinci system redefined the limits of minimally invasive care
The ongoing collaboration between surgeons, engineers, and innovators driving the next wave of medical robotics

Whether you’re passionate about robotics, engineering, or medicine, this lecture offers an inside look at how complex systems are evolved to meet the demands of real-world surgery.

Join us and discover how Intuitive engineers the future of surgery!
