Summary

Dr. Cristián Trucco completed a surgery using a tablet-based interface powered by the Andromedas spatial navigation system, a technology designed to guide surgeons through human anatomy with GPS-like precision. This system ensures surgeons always know where they are and what to do next during operations. To make advanced clinical trials accessible to physicians, the team collaborated with Prof. Peter Gilling, who pioneered the HoLEP procedure in 1997. Their effort launched the ASTRA clinical trial under the leadership of Dr. Trucco, demonstrating how modern spatial navigation can significantly enhance patient safety and surgical efficiency.
