A soft-robotic, smart endoscope that navigates along naturally given pathways. Super minimally invasive, affordable and gentle.
The Gentle Medical Platform defines a new class of its own for extraluminal surgeries. It offers access for flexible surgical instruments and devices, even to hard-to-reach organs: Planned, controlled and super minimally invasive.
The soft-robotic smart endoscope, inserted through a single gentle port, navigates to its destination along naturally occurring pathways, in-between folds and organs, without the use of gas and under constant visual supervision.
Based on the available MRI and CT data and supported by artificial intelligence, the optimal path to the target organ is planned. Captured endoscope videos acquired during the movement to the target and during the treatment are automatically evaluated for abnormalities.
We believe in super minimally invasive surgery – the next evolutionary step towards a more gentle personalized medicine.
Animated human body
Medicine continuously advances in making treatments more effective, less invasive and also affordable. The Gentle Medical Platform is a new approach for all surgeons to overcome the following surgical challenges:
Super minimally invasive, flexible endoscopy for investigating areas of concern and findings.The evaluated position will be digitally logged and displayed in the digital twin.
Insertion of a catheter under endoscopic guidance to drain the abdomen. For the insertion of larger-diameter catheters, it is advisable to position a guidewire, over which the larger catheter can then be advanced to the desired location.
Taking of biopsies under endoscopic control from hard-to-reach areas of the body by using biopsy forceps. The biopsy position will be digitally logged and displayed in the digital twin.
