Overview

The AquaBeam Robotic System delivers Aquablation therapy — an ultrasound-guided, robotically-controlled, heat-free waterjet treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The surgeon maps the prostate on real-time ultrasound and cystoscopy, then the robot removes the targeted tissue with a high-velocity waterjet while sparing surrounding anatomy, an approach studied for preserving continence and sexual function across prostates of varying size.

Key specs

  • Built for Prostate surgery (BPH)
  • Used across hospital
  • Navigates using image guided / conformal planning
  • Programmed through teach pendant and Python
  • Certified to FDA 510(k) and CE
