“ACS is the largest gathering of global surgeons, and we are pleased to
bring the Senhance System to exhibit at this major meeting for the first
time,” said Mohan Nathan, Vice President of Global Marketing at

that brings haptic force feedback, eye-sensing camera control, and
responsible economics through reusable instrumentation to robotics.”
The Senhance will be available for surgeon evaluations at the congress.
Surgeons may schedule system evaluations by signing up at the
TransEnterix booth. Non-surgeons may see demonstrations throughout the
conference, and may also attend a group demonstration at the booth at

The Senhance carries the CE Mark for use in general surgery, gynecology,
