Emory Healthcare Validates Microbot Medical’s Robotic System in Key Endovascular Procedures
Event summary
- Emory Healthcare completed robotic peripheral endovascular procedures using Microbot Medical’s LIBERTY® System, including first robotic PAE for BPH and Y-90 radioembolization mapping for liver cancer.
- Microbot Medical plans Full Market Release of LIBERTY System at Society of Interventional Radiology conference in April 2026.
- LIBERTY System is FDA-cleared for single-use, remotely operated robotic endovascular procedures.
- Emory’s interventional radiologists highlighted precision and efficiency gains in treating BPH and liver cancer.
The big picture
Microbot Medical’s LIBERTY System is positioning itself as a disruptive force in endovascular care, akin to how robotic-assisted prostatectomy transformed prostate cancer treatment. Emory Healthcare’s successful adoption of the system for BPH and liver cancer procedures signals potential for broader market acceptance. The upcoming Full Market Release at the Society of Interventional Radiology conference could further solidify its role in precision endovascular navigation.
