"On October 7, a simulation center opens at the Juntendo Medical University in Tokyo, which we are creating as part of a partnership with the Japanese RIKEN research center. At the moment, there are seven robot simulators for laparoscopic, endovascular, hysteroscopic and endourological interventions installed there," Valeev said.
According to the CEO of Eidos-Medicine LLC, 15 simulators will be installed at the Juntendo University center by the end of this year, and the center may expand next year. The simulation robots developed and manufactured by the Kazan company serve as simulators for simulating the situation in the operating room, including preparing the patient for anesthesia, performing surgical intervention, withdrawal from anesthesia and carrying out postoperative resuscitation measures.
"The Juntendo-RIKEN Center is especially important for us because it is a test center. If it is successful, it is planned to create a whole network of similar centers in Japan, where surgeons will learn how to perform operations," Valeev said.
