CyberKnife® is the only robotic radiotherapy device to deliver precise doses of radiation with extreme accuracy. It uses a linear accelerator mounted to a flexible jointed robotic arm to provide up to 1,200 different angles for physicians to reach a variety of tumors both benign and malignant. Surgeons synchronize CyberKnife® with patient movements, including breathing, to allow pinpoint radiation treatment even on moving tumors.
DaVinci® Surgical System
This system offers a minimally invasive surgical option for a wide-range conditions in a variety of specialties including bariatrics, general surgery, gynecology, pulmonology and urology. DaVinci® technology is available at many MercyOne locations.
Ion technology gives the surgeon access to the most difficult areas of the lung to reach, reducing the need for multiple procedures. This technology provides a minimally invasive option for lung biopsies while decreasing the risk of collapsing the lung and improving diagnostic capabilities, enabling a more precise biopsy.
The first and only robotic technology that can be used across various joint replacement services to perform total knee, total hip and partial knee replacements. Mako is recognized for improved knee flexion and soft tissue protection in comparison to manual surgery techniques.
ROSA® Knee
The Robotic Surgical Assistant (ROSA) collects before and during surgery to provide your surgeon with details related to your unique anatomy to tailor the placement of your knee implant. By using ROSA data, your surgeon plans and carries out a personalized surgery based upon your individual needs.
StealthStation™
Stealth technology is an advanced computer-assisted, image-guided navigational tool to give your surgeon the ability to plan, navigate and precisely position surgical instruments in the most difficult areas of the brain, spine and sinuses.
