News & Updates

Virtuoso Surgical Inc., a Nashville-based surgical robotics company, announced the first-in-human use of its Virtuoso system, ushering in a new era of minimally invasive surgery.

Virtuoso Surgical, Inc., a Nashville based medical device company, announced their role in a landmark multi-institution award project on artificial intelligence.

Dr. Duke Herrell, CEO / CMO Virtuoso Surgical Inc., spoke at the 2024 World Congress of Endourology and UroTechnology.

Virtuoso's endoscopic surgical system delivers two robotically controlled, needle-sized manipulators that work from the tip of a rigid endoscope less than half the diameter of a U.S. dime, enabling unprecedented dexterity in endoscopic procedures.

The Virtuoso System enhances traditional rigid endoscopes by providing dexterous, robotic tools that improve control and patient outcomes, allowing surgeons to manipulate tissue as if their hands were inside the body.

Virtuoso Surgical unveiled its new robotic system that resets the scale and reimagines the future of robotic endoscopic surgery.
