It is the first ASC in the South Bay region to add the technology, according to a June 28 news release.

Mako robotics use 3D, CT-based imaging for surgical planning and are designed so physicians make fewer incisions and patients have quicker recoveries and less soft tissue damage.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
