Title: Symphony Robotics licenses new robotics technology to fight brain tumors

CLEVELAND, Ohio, United States, 30th Jan 2025 – Symphony Robotics has secured an exclusive worldwide license from Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) for a novel MRI-guided, magnetically actuated, flexible micro robotic arm technology. This groundbreaking system navigates non-linear trajectories, enabling precise, micro-invasive surgeries with real-time image guidance. CWRU researchers and faculty have been instrumental in the development and advancement of this innovation.Symphony Robotics is now advancing the patents-pending technology, which combines micro-robotic arms, real-time computer vision, and state-of-the-art artificial intelligence. The initial focus is to provide neurosurgeons with enhanced capabilities for complex microsurgical procedures, targeting brain cancer—particularly Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM)—as well as epilepsy. The ultimate goal is to reduce incision and craniotomy sizes to less than 4 millimeters, representing a tenfold reduction compared to current clinical norms.GBM is among the most aggressive and challenging brain cancers to treat. Existing surgical methods, such as craniotomies, are highly invasive, requiring large skull openings and posing significant risks, including trauma to healthy brain tissue and delays in follow-up treatments such as radiation, chemotherapy, or drug delivery. Other methods such as laser ablation only support a limited and partial treatment option. Symphony Robotics’ flexible, non-linear micro robotic arm aims to enable extended and precise access to deep seated lesions while protecting surrounding eloquent tissue, offering the potential to improve outcome and quality of life for GBM patients.Symphony Robotics founder and CEO, Mordechai (Moty) Avisar, stated:“Our technology will introduce unprecedented advance...
