Robotic Colonoscopy Moves Closer to Clinical Use

A first-in-human study of the Triton robotic colonoscopy system moving ahead to clinical use

A new first-in-human CARE study suggests that robotic colonoscopy may be technically feasible and safe in carefully selected patients. The Triton robotic colonoscopy system achieved 100% cecal intubation in 50 patients, detected polyps at rates comparable to manual colonoscopy, and allowed successful removal of eligible polyps, while potentially reducin…
