NEUROBLATE® SYSTEM
NeuroBlate® is the only minimally invasive, robotic, laser thermotherapy tool that uses MRI-guided surgical ablation technology designed specifically for use in the brain.
The Minimally Invasive Surgical Choice
NeuroBlate provides precise and maximal brain lesion ablation for patients without the invasiveness of an open neurosurgical procedure. The precise nature of the procedure helps lessen the likelihood of harm to nearby healthy tissue.1
Over 3,000 Procedures
NeuroBlate offers hope and healing to patients suffering from a wide range of neurological lesions, including brain tumors and epileptic foci.
EXCLUSIVE TECHNOLOGIES
NeuroBlate delivers a comprehensive, full solution laser ablation system that includes software, disposables, and hardware.
TruTemp™ Technology
Provides confidence in the accuracy of the ablation zone and added safety assurance.
NeuroBlate Fusion™ Software
Allows neurosurgeons to plan, deliver, and monitor MRI-guided robotic laser thermotherapy.
NeuroBlate Optic™ Laser Probe
The first and only commercially available laser probe with fiber optic controlled cooling.
CLINICAL RESEARCH & TRIALS
Our commitment to clinical research is an essential and integral part of our mission and is demonstrated in our clinical trial work.
Active Clinical Trials
The Laser Ablation of Abnormal Neurological Tissue Using Robotic NeuroBlate® System (LAANTERN) Prospective Registry is currently enrolling eligible patients.
