Electrophysiologists at Princess Grace Hospital have been among the pioneers of robotic cardiac ablation in Europe, becoming early adopters of Stereotaxis technology in 2006.

Key Points: 
  • Electrophysiologists at Princess Grace Hospital have been among the pioneers of robotic cardiac ablation in Europe, becoming early adopters of Stereotaxis technology in 2006.
  • Since then, more than 1,000 patients in Monaco have benefited from the precision and safety of Robotic Magnetic Navigation.
  • Dr. Gabriel Latcu, head of electrophysiology and deputy head of cardiology services at Princess Grace Hospital, has successfully treated the first patients with the new Genesis Robot, the first procedures performed with the technology in Southern Europe.
  • Robotic Magnetic Navigation has been a central technology in enabling us to successfully treat and research complex arrhythmias, says Dr. Latcu.
