Microbot Medical was founded with the vision of pioneering Micro Invasive Surgery, transforming one of the biggest trends in healthcare - Minimally Invasive Surgery (estimated to be close to $20B by 2015); the company will provide transformational micro invasive technologies with the accuracy of robots and automated instruments to assist physicians in targeting the disease site with exquisite precision. Microbot will solve one of the largest unmet needs in the medical field, where morbidity as a result of surgery is more frequently due to trauma involved in gaining access to the area to perform the intended procedure rather than from the procedure itself. Through its unique platforms, Microbot will reach multiple surgical spaces, capitalizing on the fact that minimally invasive techniques have been applied to most of the surgical specialties. Microbot`s ViRob platform is an Autonomous Advancing Micro Robot (AAMR), less then 1mm in diameter, which has the ability to advance (forward/backward) within cavities/lumens (such as the typical human body`s veins and arteries). The TipCat platform is a self-propelled, flexible, see & treats endoscope/catheter. It is comprised of a series of interconnected balloons that provide forward and backward motion while allowing for a working channel to be available during the procedure. In developing its platforms, the company is focusing on multi-disciplinary platform of products.

Precision Biopsy, LLC was formed in partnership with Allied Minds to develop and commercialize novel technology for the accurate diagnosis of prostate cancer. The company’s diagnostic technology uses advanced spectroscopy imaging techniques in combination with tissue biopsy. For the first time, this unique ability will eliminate random prostate biopsies that are subject to sampling errors and can lead to inaccurate grading and staging of the disease. The scientific founders, professors Priya Werahara and John Daily of the University of Colorado, have long studied the morphology of cancer tissue. Combining their knowledge of advanced spectroscopy techniques has resulted in the ability to image the precise location of cancer in the prostate.
