To expose resident surgeons to Robotic-Assisted Surgery (RAS), the State-run Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology has tied up with Intuitive India, a global technology company specialising in minimally invasive care and RAS.
Through this initiative called I-ROPE (Intuitive Robotic Onboarding Program and Education), Kidwai institute and Intuitive aim to familiarise more than 35 resident surgeons with robotic assisted surgery, its technology, clinical applications and its benefits.
I-ROPE is an industry-academia collaborative programme, which is aimed at helping young surgeons understand the know-how and benefits of Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS) procedures that are growing in demand using Intuitive’s da Vinci surgical system.
