Robin Medical Inc., developed a unique system to enable MRI guided interventions, such as biopsies, endoscopy, catheterization, RF ablation, cryotherapy, and other diagnostic and therapeutic interventions on any MRI scanner. Robin Medical's primary product, The EndoScout Tracking System, is FDA cleared, and it uses the gradient fields of the scanner to determine the position and orientation of miniature sensors inside and outside the body. The system can be easily installed and used on any scanner, with no need to modify the scanner or its mode of operation and with no electromagnetic interference. EndoScout is being used for various clinical procedures on open scanners (prostate brachytherapy and cryotherapy, RF ablation of liver tumors, cryotherapy of renal cancer, breast biopsy, brain surgery and more) and for research on close-bore scanners (MRI catheterization and endoscopy, motion artifact elimination) in leading clinical centers around the globe.
