The Sovereign visited the Monegasque Institute of Sports Medicine and Surgery (IM2S), which is now equipped with this robotic assistance system already in use at several French healthcare facilities.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

On Thursday 28 November, IM2S celebrated its twentieth anniversary in the presence of Prince Albert II, marking the symbolic milestone with the presentation of its new surgical robot, Rosa. The purchase reflects the technological innovation strategy the institute has pursued since it was founded.<\/p>\n

The Rosa system (Robotic Orthopedic Surgery Assistant), developed by the French company Zimmer Biomet Robotics and assembled in Montpellier, has been deployed in numerous French facilities since its market launch in 2019. Hospitals and clinics in Versailles, Valenciennes, Colmar, Strasbourg and Brittany use this technology to support orthopaedic surgeons in knee replacement procedures.<\/p>\n\n

The device combines a robotic arm fitted with sensors, a camera and an IT system that creates a three-dimensional model of the knee being operated on. The technology offers accuracy to a tenth of a millimetre\u2014far greater than the human eye\u2014allowing implants to be positioned according to each patient\u2019s specific anatomy.<\/p>\n\n

During his remarks to Prince Albert II, IM2S Director Thierry Loirac outlined the institution\u2019s development priorities. In his words, robotics and augmented intelligence will form \u201cthe two pillars of Monaco\u2019s modern medicine\u201d<\/em> in the decades to come. He added that the new direction foreshadows \u201cthe new engineering in Monaco\u2019s private and public healthcare facilities in the years ahead<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

The robot does not perform the procedure itself but assists the surgeon with real-time data and guidance throughout the operation. It steers the placement of the implant with millimetric precision. Robot-assisted surgery also helps reduce the length of hospital stays.<\/p>\n
