Robot Performs Initial Surgical Procedures in Spain by NaoTrac
NaoTrac Makes its Debut in Spain: A New Era for Neurosurgical Innovation
NaoTrac, Brain Navi's advanced neurosurgical navigation robot, has officially entered the Spanish market and commenced its first surgeries there, following a successful launch at the SENEC Congress in 2025. This debut has generated significant interest among Spanish neurosurgeons, marking a significant step forward in Brain Navi's European expansion [1][3][5].
The SENEC Congress, Spain's leading annual event for neurosurgeons, provided an ideal platform to showcase NaoTrac's capabilities. Surgeons from across Spain were given a first-hand opportunity to witness the robot's precision, intuitive design, user-friendliness, and value as a powerful asset in the Operating Room [1]. This exposure led to the first NaoTrac-assisted neurosurgeries being completed in Spain, signaling further adoption across Spanish hospitals [1][3].
The collaboration between Brain Navi and Palex Healthcare, a key player in the Spanish healthcare industry, was instrumental in achieving this milestone. The first NaoTrac system was installed in a Spanish hospital just one week after the SENEC Congress, a testament to the shared commitment of both companies to bringing innovative neurosurgical technology to hospitals in Spain [4].
Eulàlia Llopis, General Manager of the Hospital Area at Palex, emphasized that their mission is to bring advanced medical technology closer to those who need it the most. She expressed that the collaboration with Brain Navi reflects Palex's commitment to supporting clinicians with solutions that significantly impact precision, efficiency, and patient care [2].
For Brain Navi, this collaboration marks a major milestone in their global expansion, reinforcing their mission to improve patient outcomes through advanced medical technologies [5]. Spain holds great promise as a hub for neurosurgical innovation, according to Carles Calaf, Director of the Neurosciences Business Unit at Palex Healthcare [3].
With the successful integration of NaoTrac in Spanish hospitals, Palex Healthcare and Brain Navi are poised to help more hospitals and patients across Spain. As they continue to work together, both companies remain dedicated to supporting neurosurgeons and improving patient care, aiming to revolutionize neurosurgery in Spain and beyond [2][3][4].
