First Surgical Robot Making Surgeon’s Life More Efficient

Reporter : Irina Robu, PhD

A team of microsurgeons and engineers, developed a high-precision robotic assistant called MUSA which is clinically and commercially available. The high precision robotic assistant is compatible with current operating techniques, workflow, instruments and other or instrument. Microsure is a medical device company in The Netherlands founded by Eindhoven University of Technology and Maastricht University Medical Center in 2016. Microsure’s focus is to improve patients’ quality of life through developing robot systems for microsurgery.

The Microsure’s MUSA enhances surgical performance by stabilizing and scaling down the surgeon’s movements during complex microsurgical procedures on sub-millimeter scale. The surgical robot, allows lymphatic surgery on lymph vessels smaller than 0.3 mm in diameter. Microsure received the ISO 13485 certificate which assures that Microsure is adhering to the highest standards in quality management and regulatory compliance procedures to develop, manufacture, and test its products and services.

MUSA provides superhuman precision for microsurgeons, enabling new interventions that are currently impossible to perform by hand.
