Developing and Commercializing the First Robotic-Assisted System for the Catheterization Lab

The path to innovation is often long and full of challenges. For Corindus Vascular Robotics, the journey to develop the CorPath Vascular Robotic System took 10 years and required overcoming several engineering challenges along the way. Now, a year after receiving approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, CorPath is being used in cath labs across the country, helping interventional cardiologists to precisely advance stents during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures to treat patients with coronary artery disease.
