Perfect surgery,
every
time
.
Robotic laser precision for joint preservation — preserving the tissue mechanical instruments destroy.
Today's mechanical instruments kill the tissue they're meant to save.
Every mechanical cut destroys a fringe of viable cartilage. Donor grafts lose biology before it's ever placed.
The standard today
Mechanical instruments
Cartilage cell death up to
>110µm
deep at every cut
Irregular cutting margins
Fixed circular geometries only (e.g. trephines)
Outcome depends on the surgeon's hand
vs.
What surgery should be
Cellular-level precision
10x better: viable cells preserved within
10µm
of every cut
Clean cuts that preserve viable tissue
Any functional geometry
100% reproducible from a digital plan
Cold ablation. Robotic guidance.
Digital surgical workflow.
A complete system, not a single tool. From MRI to transplant, every step is digital, repeatable, and tuned to preserve biology.
01
Robotic arm
Sub-millimetric positioning. Replaces the surgeon's hand for the precision step.
02
Laser head
Cold-ablation laser and tissue cooling. Laser evaporates tissue without thermal damage to surrounding cells.
03
Optical guidance
Digital sensing in real time, follows the patient-specific surgical plan with sub-millimetric precision.
Step 01 · Plan
Patient-specific surgical plan
MRI becomes a 3D anatomical model. Surgeons design the cut geometry in a digital UI tuned for joint preservation.
Step 02 · Cut
Laser-cut allograft, off-site
Tissue bank pre-cuts a perfectly matched allograft. Sub-millimetric fidelity to the digital plan.
Step 03 · Transplant
Sub-millimetric implant
The surgeon places the pre-cut osteochondral allograft. The donor and recipient architecture lock with cellular-level precision.
Faster surgery. Less complexity.
Perfect fidelity.
3 – 5×
faster surgery vs. mechanical instruments
12×
fewer instruments at the operative site
100%
fidelity to the patient-specific plan
1:1
patient-specific allograft, every case
