Digital Surgery Technology Trailblazers: Top Start-ups Rapidly Gaining Mindshare in the Digital Surgery Technology Market

Digital surgery refers to the integration of advanced digital technologies, such as data and analytics and advanced imaging, with robotic surgical systems to provide a better experience to both patients and surgeons across the surgery life cycle.

Initially, prominent medical device enterprises invested heavily in surgical robots to acquire pure-play surgical capabilities. However, to scale the adoption of robots in surgery, enterprises need to overcome fragmented surgeon acceptance, inadequate training, and technological complexity. Consequently, they have started investing in complementing digital solutions with advanced digital technologies.

Recognizing this opportunity, multiple start-ups with a focus on digital surgery technologies have started to gain traction. These start-ups, with a niche area of focus and verticalized expertise, aim to bridge the gap between surgeons and robots by providing various technology solutions, enabling surgical training, pre-operative planning, and real-time patient monitoring.

In this report, we assess start-ups that offer proprietary digital surgery solutions, primarily focusing on their core capabilities and market impact.
