This Growing Robotics Company Is a Hit With Surgeons (Hint: It's not Intuitive Surgical)
Mazor Robotics Ltd.'s (NASDAQ: MZOR) surgical-assist robots are revolutionizing how surgeons perform spine surgery and demand for these systems could accelerate following study results showing that they reduce complications and thus the need for additional surgeries.
The data suggests that commercialization partner Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT) -- one of the world's biggest medtech companies -- may have even greater success convincing hospitals to purchase and use Mazor X systems.
Robotics are increasingly helping surgeons plan and perform surgery and Mazor Robotics systems are already installed at over 170 sites worldwide.
