da Vinci^® Surgical System

The da Vinci^® Surgical System consists of an ergonomically designed surgeon’s console, a patient-side cart with four interactive robotic arms, the high-performance InSite^® Vision System and proprietary EndoWrist^® Instruments. Powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology, the surgeon’s hand movements are scaled, filtered and seamlessly translated into precise movements of the EndoWrist^® Instruments. The net result: an intuitive interface with breakthrough surgical capabilities.

da Vinci^® Prostatectomy (dVP)

For many patients approaching surgery, it is often difficult to visualize what is entailed in a specific surgical procedure. To give prospective da Vinci^® prostatectomy (dVP) patients a better understanding of the advances made by robotically-assisted minimally invasive surgery, we are providing the following video presentation. This video offers a three-dimensional simulation of the male reproductive anatomy, the enabling technology—the da Vinci^® Surgical System—and the procedure itself.
