Treatment system to automatically cut and coagulate tissue and method for use

Abstract

This invention provides a novel medical device for performing precise urological procedures, specifically focusing on tissue cutting and coagulation. The Image Guided Cut and Coagulate Robot leverages multiple subsystems to autonomously cut and coagulate tissues while using real-time image guidance for precise targeting and minimal collateral damage. This system is particularly suited for use in urology, though its applications can extend to other surgical fields. A significant benefit of this invention lies in its ability to provide enhanced accuracy, reducing the potential for human error, while integrating multiple processes like tissue cutting, coagulation, and cooling to protect surrounding tissues. The system incorporates a cooling circuit that avoids excess heating of the surgical region.
