XACT Robotics has received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its Xtend remote control unit, which accompanies the company’s XACT ACE robotic surgery system.
The remote control allows users to robotically insert and steer the robotic system remotely from the control room. The ACE robotic system combines image-based planning and monitoring with S-Drive technology. The company said this allows for the system to adapt from a linear to a nonlinear trajectory during interventional CT-guided percutaneous procedures.
The system aims to improve early detection and improve patient outcomes.
