Levita Magnetics
Creates magnetic-assisted robotic surgical platforms to minimize abdominal incisions and improve visibility.
What they do
Levita Magnetics develops the MARS platform, which uses magnetic technology to retract tissue and guide surgical instruments externally during abdominal surgeries. Bariatric and general surgery clinics purchase this system to reduce the number of surgical incisions required, leading to less pain and faster recovery for patients.
