Innovation in Lung Cancer Care
Intuitive Surgical's Ion Robotic Bronchoscopy is at the forefront of advancing robotics in thoracic oncology. With a focus on streamlining the biopsy process for lung nodules, Ion brings unparalleled innovation to lung cancer care. Time is of the essence in lung cancer cases, and Ion ensures clinical confidence by providing early answers and accelerating impact on patient care programs.
Revolutionizing Biopsy Procedures
Ion's key feature is its ultrathin and ultramaneuverable catheter, enabling clinicians to access small lesions in all 18 segments of the lung. This capability gives Ion a significant advantage in reach, precision, and stability compared to traditional manual bronchoscope and biopsy techniques. With over 100,000 Ion biopsies completed, its effectiveness in achieving early answers for patients is well-established.
Empowering Patients with Speedy Diagnoses
Patients with suspicious lung nodules face a challenging journey to a lung cancer diagnosis. Ion aims to simplify this process by allowing clinicians to biopsy small, hard-to-reach nodules in the lung periphery, where a majority of cancerous nodules are located. By reducing the time to diagnosis, Ion helps patients get definitive answers without unnecessary delays.
Collaborative Innovation for Lung Cancer Centers
Intuitive's collaborative approach to innovation ensures that Ion continues to evolve to meet the needs of lung cancer centers. By partnering with the care community, Ion delivers continuous improvements in lung cancer care. The focus remains on providing meaningful innovation that enhances the quality and efficiency of lung cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Data-Driven Insights for Practice Improvement
My Intuitive for Ion offers healthcare professionals a centralized platform to manage case data efficiently. By combining system and clinical data, this platform provides valuable insights to enhance practice patterns and identify variations. Access to data allows practitioners to monitor their performance, optimize procedures, and deliver better care to patients.
Cutting-Edge Technologies in Ion
Ion incorporates innovative technologies like shape-sensing and Ion PlanPoint software. The shape-sensing technology provides real-time information on catheter position and orientation during navigation and biopsy processes. Meanwhile, the PlanPoint software utilizes 3D airway tree models to plan precise biopsy paths to target nodules. These advancements contribute to Ion's accuracy and efficiency in lung biopsies.
