A new robotic biopsy system boosts lung cancer detection accuracy to 92% and enables same-day results, reducing anxiety and surgeries.
A new robotic-assisted biopsy system has been called a “paradigm shift” in lung cancer diagnosis, enabling faster, more accurate detection of small, hard-to-reach lung nodules.
Used in a UK trial involving 200 NHS patients, the Ion endoluminal system, developed by Intuitive, uses GPS-like navigation to guide doctors with precision, achieving 92% accuracy and 99% success in targeting nodules.
The technique allows same-day biopsies, reduces anxiety from prolonged monitoring, and avoids unnecessary surgeries.
Over 900 procedures have been performed since the trial, with experts urging broader NHS adoption to improve early diagnosis and survival rates.
