In a transformative leap for healthcare in Eastern India, Kolkata-based HP Ghosh Hospital has introduced robotic-assisted spine surgery, positioning itself at the forefront of spinal care in the region.

The cutting-edge Mazor-X Robotic System, unveiled in a city event on Thursday, promises greater precision, improved patient outcomes, and faster recovery times for complex spinal procedures.

A step into the future of spinal surgeryRobotic-assisted surgeries have been hailed globally for their ability to enhance surgical accuracy.

The Mazor-X system, showcased by a team of experts led by Dr. Saumyajit Basu, aims to reduce risks often associated with spinal procedures. Dr. Basu, the Director and Lead Spine Surgeon of The Spine Foundation, called it “a defining moment for spine care in Eastern India,” emphasising its capacity to transform outcomes, particularly in high-stakes surgeries.
