San Jose, California-based Procept designed Hydros to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The company says it represents the first AI-enabled robotic platform designed specifically for the treatment of BPH.
Aquablation uses waterjet resection to precisely eradicate prostate tissue. It provides the potential for an effective cancer treatment while maintaining the patient’s quality of life.
“Many men living with BPH remain on long-term medication or delay surgery because they are concerned about potential trade-offs between symptom relief and side effects,” said Larry Wood, President & CEO, Procept BioRobotics. “The HYDROS Robotic System expands international access to a clinically validated, next-generation AI-enabled robotic solution that delivers durable symptom relief while preserving quality of life. We are proud to bring this innovation to physicians and patients across the UK and to continue expanding our international footprint.”
