Technology

Founded by minimally invasive surgery and robotics experts

Medical robotics is changing rapidly. With the convergence of three new emerging technologies, procedures that were never possible are feasible.

Meet IGAR

The IGAR system is validated in the MRI environment (1.5 and 3.0 T)

Our robot is FDA 510(k) cleared for use in MRI-guided breast biopsy and has been demonstrated in 30 patients. The IGAR technology is supported with a strong supporting IP estate of filed applications and issued patents in the United States, Canada, and the European Union.

We're witnessing a new future for MRI

With new clinical scenarios and more flexible clinical access

MRI: The best imaging modality for soft tissue

  • Accurate, sensitive
  • 3D imaging
  • No radiation

Thanks to the rise of smaller, more portable MRI machines, the costs and wait times for clinical access are decreasing.

Robotics in the bore

  • Precise
  • Minimally invasive
  • Spare vital tissue

IGAR's compact, portable design fits inside standard MRI bores.

Our robotics system automatically executes the clinical plan with more accurate and precise control, increasing physician autonomy while standardizing skill requirements and reducing burden on staff.

Robotics in the OR

  • Compact and portable
  • Option to map your plan in pre-recorded or live MRI images
  • Automates the planned trajectory with precision

The IGAR technology platform may be adapted for future products that could move seamlessly with you into standard OR environments, giving you the right image guidance at the right time for procedures.

This functionality would help to optimize the use of valuable clinical resources.
